Kindergarten
Mrs. Ruth Wissmann
My name is Ruth WIssmann. I began my teaching career here at St. John's in 1992. I hold an Elementary Education Degree and an Early Childhood Certificate from SMS and a Master's Degree from Maryville University. I am married and have a son and 2 labrador retrievers. And I love chocolate!
I chose St. John’s as a place to start my career and to gain experience. However, I fell in love with the families and school at St. John’s and feel it is the place where I should be. It feels like home.
St. John’s has a lot to offer. I feel very fortunate to teach here because of the small class sizes, and so I can share my faith with my students.
I feel St. John's provides a safe and happy learning environment. We would love for you to join our Kindergarten program. For more information call: 636.583.2392
Sincerely, Ruth Wissmann.
