About Miss Wrobel



My name is Joanna Wrobel and I am the ELL teacher at Olive-Mary Stitt School. As I begin this school year, I start in on my 11th year here at Olive-Mary Stitt School. Prior to this, I taught first grade at Olive for eight years. I am truly excited to be back for another school year and I look forward to this year with great anticipation and enthusiasm!

Before my teaching career began, I attended Northeastern Illinois University where I received my Bachelor’s Degree in Early Childhood Education and a Master’s Degree in Reading and English as a Second Language (ESL). I consider myself a life-long learner and I like to be involved in different professional development opportunities.

Aside from my passion for teaching, I am very family-oriented. I was raised in a Polish household, and I still maintain many customs and traditions of my heritage. I have a strong relationship with my parents and I love spending time with them as well as my older brother. I also enjoy spending time with my friends, going to concerts, trying new restaurants, and going to the movies.

Please feel free to contact me at any time with any questions or concerns regarding your students or the ELL program. You can reach me at jwrobel@sd25.org or 847-398-4282, extension 5852.
