About Me

Picture
My name is Kami Spatzek.  I am the new librarian at Congress Park School in Brookfield, Illinois.  After spending eight years working with Kindergarten students as a specialist and five years as a classroom teacher in primary grades, I am ready to expand my role to an elementary building working with students in grades K-6.  

Mitchel Resnick, a professor at MIT, describes his team as the Lifelong Kindergarten Group.  I love this description and philosophy.  I hope to bring all the excitement and joy of learning I've witnessed with our youngest learners to the upper grades.

My Resume​

"Every child regardless of the disguise knows what he or she is not. As educators we must inspire each child to discover what he or she can be."
