My name is Sarah Striemer. I attended Minnesota State University-Mankato where I earned my Elementary Education degree. I graduated from St. Mary’s University with my master’s degree in Educational Leadership. St. John Vianney Catholic School has been a part of my life from the beginning of my teaching career. I began teaching here during the 2002-2003 school year in 1st grade. I spent two years with the first graders and then moved upstairs to the 4th grade classroom. I taught 4th grade for 12 years. Now, I am so blessed to say that I have my dream job of being the principal at SJV. I am so grateful that I get to come to a place that is as wonderful as SJV every day. My husband, Jay, and I have four children—Isaac, Gabriel, Clare and Jonah, all of whom are alumni of SJV.
