My name is Mrs. Melissa Pytak.  This is my nineteenth year as a teacher and my eleventh year at Minersville.  Previously I taught at Panther Valley Elementary and Pine Grove High School.  I graduated from Minersville High School in 1997.  I graduated from Misericordia University in 2001 with a bachelor’s of science in elementary and special education.  I have also completed courses at the master’s level in curriculum development from Wilkes University. 

I currently live in Minersville with my children Hunter 6^th grade, Giuliana 4^th grade, Kadyn kindergarten, and our special pug Lexie.  I can be seen around town at football, cheer, or basketball practices/games as well as CCD.
