Hello and Welcome! My name is Katie (Katelyn) Reiter. I am from Minot/Surrey, ND. I have a Bachelor of Arts in Photography from Minot State University. I am currently working on a degree in Elementary Education at the University of Mary in Bismarck, ND. After graduating from high school in 2007, I attended Minot State University. After many years of changing majors I decided on a BA in Photography and graduated in 2013. I moved to Bismarck in January 2014 and began working at the YMCA YDC, teaching 2-3 year old preschool. It was through that job that I came to fully realize how much I loved teaching. I had coached high school cheerleading and dance previously, and been told by family members that I would be a great teacher, but it was not until I worked with those children that I began to see that for myself. A year later I began working as an Instructional Aide at a local elementary school, and it has been through this job that I have been blessed to work with amazing students, dedicated teachers, and supportive staff, all who have influenced me the most on this journey. I have learned more about the "real-world" of teaching through this experience than I could have ever imagined. I have realized that the classroom is where I am truly meant to be, and I want, more than anything, to make an impact on students lives.
I have posted many items for you to take a peek at and find out more about me. Please contact me if you have any questions!
