Ms. Nelson (Elizabeth) New Richland Preschool 3 & 4/5 year old Teacher
My name is Elizabeth Nelson. I was raised in New Richland, and am so blessed to be part of such a wonderful community. Growing up, I always enjoyed welcoming new children to our family and going on missions trips and meeting children. Whether it was my younger siblings or cousins, or children in orphanages, I had the honor and privilege to care for, love on many of them, and experience the joyous moments of young children. Through these experiences, I was able to view that every child is a blessing, and each one has a true purpose in life.
After I graduated high school, I worked as a Paraprofessional in the NRHEG school district. I felt that my calling was to become a teacher, and so I pursued that dream. Currently, I am a graduate from Bethel University with a Bachelor degree, and have a Tier 3 license in Elementary Education, Pre-primary Education, and Early Childhood Education. During my college years, I had several opportunities to discover the exciting experiences preschool children brought to the room. There really is never a dull moment with a preschool child, and I am so excited to engage in the joy that preschoolers bring to life, as well as help them discover their purpose.
