Melissa Mattson

1st Grade Teacher
Compass Elementary

My name is Melissa Mattson and I have been teaching since 2011.  I have my BA in Elementary Education and MA in Reading, both from NWMSU. I have taught in St. Joseph for the past several years. I have experience teaching many grade levels, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and most recently 1st grade. I have a true passion for teaching students how to read. I have earned my LETRS Certification. I love working with kids, staff, and families and I am excited to be apart of this great community.  

This past spring, my husband Jake, accepted a new job with Snyder and Associates. He will be working in both Kansas City and St. Joseph. Because of this change, we have moved to Platte City with our 2 daughters, Molly and Ivy, and our dog Bo from Maryville. We are so excited to get to know everyone in Platte City!
