Hello! My name is Dawn Nalepka. I graduated from Centennial High School. I received my bachelor's degree from Mankato State University and my master's degree from Saint Mary's University. I started teaching math for St. Paul Public Schools in 1999.  I spent 11 years at Hazel Park Middle School and 3 years at Battle Creek Middle School. I'm having such a great time here at Murray. I'm married with 2 children; Austin and Alexis. Outside of school I enjoy playing softball, deer hunting, watching my children play all of their many sports, and spending time with my family and friends.
