Mrs. Melanie Schillinger
1st Grade
About Me: I’ve been married for 30 years to my awesome husband, Mark, and have four grown children and one granddaughter. We live in Cochranville, PA and attend Gateway Church.
My educational background: I have a dual certification in Early Childhood Education and Elementary Education from Evangel University. I began my teaching career in Pottstown, PA teaching first and second grade. After being a stay at home mom for 12 years, I was a substitute teacher in Octorara Area School District for almost 10 years. I came to WFCS in the fall of 2022 as the Lead PreKindergarten Teacher. I’m excited to be moving into the First Grade Teacher position this year!
My favorite WFCS Memory: I absolutely LOVE our chapel times together! Listening to the kids worship being led by our middle school students, hearing a message from a local pastor/speaker and praying together is the highlight of my week!
