My name is Julia Selman, and I am very excited to join the talented staff at Lumen Christi. I graduated college in 2023 with a bachelor's degree in biology education and spent the following year teaching 7th and 8th graders in Idaho. My husband and I are moving from Idaho to be closer to family. I grew up in Brookfield and moved away to attend college. It is amazing to be back home and enjoy all the comforts of Wisconsin.
I love teaching at the middle school level because students of that age are transitioning to become independent learners and are developing talents and passions that they will continue to pursue for many years. I am passionate about providing a safe learning environment where students can explore and challenge their understanding of the natural world.
When I am not in the classroom, I enjoy spending time outside, going camping, visiting national parks, or fishing. In the winter, I bundle up and read a good book.
I look forward to getting to know you and your students this school year!
