My name is Ms. Stienstra and I am the International Baccalaureate Primary Years and Middle Years Programme Coordinator.  I have been teaching for 20+ years, 12 at Maxwell Academy.   Teaching is my passion and I LOVE my job!  International Baccalaureate has given me a new challenge and I'm excited.  How have you shown the IB Learner Profile today?

My favorites…

Color? Yellow

Food? Soup, Salad, and Sandwiches

Subject? Reading

Book? Oh the Places You’ll  Go  by Dr. Seuss

      I love to shop, hang out with my amazing friends and family, and ride my yellow beach cruiser at the beach.  My dad calls me Imelda Marcos because I have a strong love for shoes as you'll surely see when we meet.  I have a great family, including my mom, dad, sister, brother-in-law, niece, and nephew!  We have a blast together and they constantly inspire me.

Here's to a great year!!!
