Welcome to English Language Arts!

Emily Niemi here! This is my 7th year in the AH District and I absolutely love teaching here at Anoka Middle School for the Arts. This year I am teaching two sections of ELA 7, along with two levels of Creative Writing. Before Anoka, I taught English 6, 7, 8, and 10 in Carlton, Minnesota just 20 miles south of Duluth.

I will be on maternity leave for most of the first trimester - my sub Jill will be covering as soon as I leave.

Besides teaching, I am the Cyclone Council (student council) advisor and also the advisor for AMSA the Gathering, our school’s gamer club. My advice to students is to GET INVOLVED in school! I am also the school's social media coordinator. 

Outside of school, I enjoy spending time with my husband, daughter (another daughter expected Sept/Oct 2019), our extended family, and our two dogs Mac (westie) and Chewy (cairn). Reading, watching movies, crafts, planning events, and interior decorating are a few of the things I love to do too! Also....GO TWINS!
