Welcome to Fifth Grade! My name is John Dmitrasz and I am so thrilled to be educating your child this school year! I look forward to working with your children every day as they grow and learn within my classroom.

I received my BA in Elementary Education from Governors State University in University Park, IL in December 2014. I am originally from the Chicagoland area, but my family and I made the lucky jump down to the St. Louis area in 2015. I am married and have 7 awesome children.

I believe it is important to show students how to love learning, and how to embrace knowledge as well as working with each other in order to do their best. My goal is to impact as many lives as I can as a teacher.
