Amy Kronemann!
For 20 years, this teacher has been shaping young minds, building confidence,
and creating classrooms where every student feels seen, supported, and inspired to learn.
She’s taught first grade. She’s taught third grade.
She’s coached volleyball. She’s coached basketball.
And through it all, she’s taught her students how to work hard,
stay humble when they win,
and never give up when they lose.
Her teaching partner of nine years calls her the “go-to person” for just about everything:
✔ Need a strategy for a tricky lesson? Ask Amy.
✔ Need advice on student behavior? Ask Amy.
✔ Need perspective to keep going? Ask Amy.
As a PLC Lead, she brings educators together, shares best practices,
and makes sure no teacher feels like they’re in this work alone.
Her leadership is steady. Her kindness is constant.
And her dedication—to her students, her colleagues, and her school—runs deep.
For two decades, she has made learning meaningful, built strong relationships,
and raised the bar for excellence across our district.
Today, we celebrate not just her years of service,
but the way she’s shaped lives—in the classroom, on the court, and throughout Lewiston schools.
We are hiring school bus drivers, and we need your help spreading the word! Please share this opportunity with parents, friends, neighbors, and anyone in your network who may be interested.
