TEACHER WEBSITES

Ms. Haines is excited to be part of the Mississippi Creative Arts School community as a WINN Literacy Teacher. She provides reading support to students from various grade levels. To see the growth in her students' reading progress is the highlight of her teaching!

Ms. Haines has been teaching in the St. Paul Public School District since 2000 after receiving her master's degree in Elementary Education from the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities. Over the years, she has taught grades first through fourth and was also an Academic Support teacher. Aside from her current teaching role, she is a Parent Teacher Home Visit Project facilitator. This wonderful program has given many teachers the opportunity to build postive relationships with students, families, and schools through their home visits. She is also a mentor to a first year teacher and co-leads the school's Sunshine Committee. 

When Ms. Haines is not teaching, she enjoys working out (She is a two-time marathon finisher!), traveling, baking, and scrapbooking. She also enjoys spending time with her husband, Jeff, and daughers, Quinn and Maggie.
