Mrs. Diane Lysiak
Art Teacher
Hello, my name is Diane Lysiak and I have been the Art teacher at MCS since 2019. I earned both my Bachelor and Masters degrees from Grand Valley State University. Prior to coming to MCS I was a classroom teacher for over 25 years, teaching 3rd, 4th, and 6th grades. I also spent a couple of years working as a Reading and Math Interventionist for kindergarten through fifth grade.
I have enjoyed all of my different teaching experiences, but teaching Art is my favorite! I love being creative! Having the opportunity to share my love of art with children while helping them discover and express their creativity is so rewarding!
Favorite Verse:
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
Philippians 4:13
Skills
