Mrs. Marissa Reinholtz:

I am so excited to be a part of the Nappanee Elementary School family! I have taught and/or worked in Kindergarten since 2016, and it is by far the best grade to teach!  I love to teach and I love to learn, and am always looking for new ways to engage my students and enrich their Kindergarten experience. My favorite part of teaching Kindergarten in watching the growth kindergarteners have from their first day of school to kindergarten graduation.

I currently live in Osceola, but grew up in Bremen, and graduated from Bremen Public Schools. I have two children currently enrolled at Penn High School and two that have graduated. I love how warm and caring the Nappanee community is, it truly feels like an extension of my own family!

Mrs. Ronda Weldy:

I am thrilled to be part of the Nappanee Elementary family and Kindergarten team! I began teaching at NES in 2022, but have taught Kindergarten since 2013. I love sharing moments with my Kinders as they bring so much excitement and wonder to all the new things they are learning and experiencing!


Before moving to Nappanee, my family and I lived in southern Indiana where I was the ELL coordinator for a school corporation.  We moved to Nappanee in 2006 and have enjoyed becoming part of the Nappanee community and watching our kids grow and learn in the Wa-Nee school system. My husband and I have two children: Brianna, who attends Indiana Wesleyan University and Landon, who attends Grace College.  We enjoy just spending time together, from playing games to hiking.

I always appreciate good communication with parents so if you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please email me at [email protected]
