Hello! My name is Kristel Blackmore, formerly Kristel Mach. I teach all the high school art classes, which includes Drawing and Painting, Jewelry, Ceramics, Digital Media, Independent Art and Adaptive Art. I am also the advisor for Art Club and GSA.

I graduated with my Bachelor's of Fine Arts from UW Milwaukee in 2009. I went on to earn my Master's of Curriculum and Instruction with a focus on Inclusive Classroom in 2020 from Concordia University. Previously I  taught 6-12th grade art in the Northern Ozaukee School District, and 6-8th grade art in the Green Bay School District. 

My classroom is a creative and safe space for all students. My door is always "open" for those who need to talk or decompress. Everyone is welcome and accepted here. 

I currently live with my husband and infant daughter in Suamico. We enjoy spending time together outside, and watching our little baby grow!
