Faculty Spotlight – Mrs. Melissa Christensen

Hello, I am Melissa Christensen. I am the mom to 5 awesome kids. This will be my second year at Altara, but I was a kitty hawk when I was in elementary school. I grew up in Sandy and went to all the same schools my kids are going to. I love to run races, my new favorite are half marathons. I am definitely not the fastest runner but I am just excited to get through the finish line. I love hiking, paddle boarding, and exploring outside. I coach girls lacrosse as well. I love working at Altara because it has the most amazing teachers and staff!
