Hello!  I am Ann Marie Schlichting.  I have been teaching at St. Cloud School district since 1999 and love it here. I provide a unique perspective, as I've taught at a number of different buildings in the district, grade levels, subject areas, and even taught outside the district prior to 1999.   This allows me to keep an open mind to new ideas, and to remain flexible, even as I "mature".  Certain things remain at my core: Music Education allows children to safely explore their creativity, learn and hone social and emotional skills, is connected to ALL of the "core" standards, and is scientifically shown to significantly increase the neural connectivity between the spheres of the brain - which increases intelligence, athletic prowess, and agility. (let me know if you want the sites on that information) :-) The United Arts: Music, Art, and Phy Ed, are vital to your children, and I appreciate the parental/guardian support we get here at Clearview.  We have your children's best interests in mind.
