Mrs. Saari

Mrs. Saari
My name is Priscilla Saari. I teach fifth grade at Hancock-Hamline University Collaborative Magnet. I was born in Wisconsin and received my Bachelor of Science degree in Elementary Education and Music Education from Wisconsin State University in Superior, Wisconsin. I taught second grade for four years in Roseville, Minnesota and substitute taught in both Iowa and Illinois. For thirteen years I taught music at Groveland Park Elementary School in St. Paul. This is my fifth year teaching fifth grade at Hancock. I received my Master of Science degree in Education from St. Mary's University of Minnesota. I am married to Ron and have two adult children, Matt and Katey. I love to cross-stitch, knit, read, write and listen to music. It is exciting to share the things I love to do with my students and see them get excited about them too.
