Mrs. claussen

Hi families and students! My name is Kelsey Claussen (formally Kelsey Patricelli, I just got married this summer!) and I am one of the 1st grade teachers at Sunnyside Elementary. I am in my 10th year of teaching and am so grateful for the opportunity to learn and work alongside students each day! I attended college at Bethel University and have my Masters of Arts in Literacy Education from Hamline University. Along with teaching I love to golf, hike, watch the Vikings & walk my dog, Beau! Let's have a great year!
