A DYNAMIC DUO DEDICATED TO EDUCATION AND COMMUNITY

Kristen and Dirk Slagmolen are a remarkable husband-and-wife team whose dedication to education and community is nothing short of heroic.

With nearly 20 years in the classroom, Kristen is known for her inclusive teaching, innovative methods, and unwavering commitment to student success. She’s received multiple awards, secured curriculum-enhancing grants, and serves in key leadership roles, including K–2 STEM coordinator, ATLAS curriculum team member, and before-school program lead. She also gives back through the PTO board and countless volunteer efforts.

Dirk, a 15-year educator, is a beloved physical education teacher and former interim assistant principal known for his energy, connection with students, and inclusive practices — earning him a SEPAC Award nomination. Like Kristen, he contributes to curriculum development and is a respected leader in the school.

While raising three young daughters, Kristen and Dirk continue to inspire through their deep commitment to their students, school, and each other — true heroes in every sense.
