Elementary Staff
I am the kindergarten and first grade teacher. I have been a teacher at WCA since it opened 16 years ago. Before that I taught in southern California. I am from Wisconsin so after my daughters were born I moved back. This summer was a really big summer for me. I got married and took my youngest daughter to college in Virginia! I have a big family now! I have my 2 daughters and a granddaughter, 2 stepsons, a stepdaughter, 2 step-grandchildren and another one due in December. During my free time I like to travel (mostly to see my kids!), socialize with my friends, read, ride my bike and take walks.
Mrs. Graf-Miller - Kindergarten & 1st Grade
Hi! My name is Wanda Kemnetz and I am teaching 2nd grade this year at Wisconsin Connections Academy. I have been teaching at WCA since 2006. Prior to WCA, I taught both Grade 3 and Elementary students with learning disabilities in the bricks and mortar school. I hold a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Elementary Education and Special Education. I live in Oshkosh with my husband and two of my sons who are 15 and 24. I have another son who is 27 and lives in Wausau. I also have two fur-babies; a dog named Rylee and a cat named Izzy. During my free time I enjoy the outdoors. I love flowers and fill my yard with them in the summer. I also enjoy hiking, bike riding, swimming, kayaking, and snowshoeing.
Mrs. Kemnetz - 2nd Grade
Megan Lisowe teaches grades 3 and 4 this year at Wisconsin Connections Academy! This is her second year as a virtual teacher. Prior to WCA, she taught 10 years in a brick-and-mortar school. In 2006, she earned a Bachelors of Science in Elementary Education with a German minor from the University of Wisconsin– River Falls. She completed graduate coursework at Viterbo University in order to earn her Reading Teacher License in 2012. She also became a National Board Certified Teacher in 2015. Megan currently lives in Appleton with her husband and 3 year old and 5 year old sons. In her free time Megan is an avid horse rider.
