My name is Melissa Zientara, and I am a Special Education teacher at Highland Park High School.  I am a Case Manager/Learning Strategies teacher, and I teach the Peer Mentoring class, as well.

I am the co-sponsor of our HPHS Rotary Interact Club and the co-sponsor of the 2019 Class Council.  I have been teaching for 20 years, and I feel very lucky that I get to do what I love every day.  

I also love Bon Jovi, sleep, and Pepper (my puppy).
