Erin Harmon
5th Grade

My name is Erin Harmon and this is my third year at Paideia. The small class sizes at Paideia help me attend to the wide variety of needs in my classroom. I came to Paideia because I love the vision of an academically rigorous education that includes the arts and music.

 My degree is in Elementary Education with a specialty in Middle School  Language Arts. I have recently begun graduate school at Saint Mary's University to earn a Masters of Arts in Education degree.  I live nearby with my sister, who also happens to be my teaching partner! I  love to read, complete crossword puzzles, and spend time with my  family.

5th Grade

Hi, I’m Jessica Harmon, this year I will be teaching 5th grade Paideia Academy. I enjoy teaching at Paideia Academy because there is an abundance of teacher and parent support for all students. 

I previously taught pre-school for two years at KinderCare.  I have also been a paraprofessional in district 191 and 196.  I have been working with children since I was a junior in high school.

I graduated cum laude from the University of Minnesota, Mankato with a B.A. in Elementary Education, and a Middle School specialty in Language Arts.

In my spare time I love to go on bike rides, rollerblade and read.  I live in Eagan with my sister Erin, who is also a teacher at Paideia Academy.
