Hello, I am Tedra Prussman. I am from Oregon, Missouri but currently live in Saint Joseph. I graduated in 2011 from Missouri Western with a Bachelors of Science in Elementary Education before continuing to graduate with my Master's in Educational Leadership from Arkansas State University in 2017. I started my career with the Saint Joseph School District, spending 5 years at the Alternative Resource Center with Grades 1st through 3rd in the Management Program. After its closure I went on to Stewartsville School District with 5th and 6th graders for 4 years. The last two years I was with Savannah School District at the Middle School teaching Math to 6th and 8th graders. 

I love spending my free time with my husband Toby and two daughters Paxton and Braelyn. I have a passion for kids and their growth in and out of the classroom. On the side, I have spent time as the competitive gymnastics coach for Arising Stars since 2004.
