Welcome to Kindergarten!

My name is Margo Hodapp (formerly Borth). I began teaching in 1983, after graduating from Xavier University in Cincinnati, Ohio. My first teaching job at a private Montessori school brought me to Minnesota. I have been teaching in the Minneapolis Public schools since 1987. I feel fortunate to have been at Armatage since we began the Montessori program in 2002. It's been exciting to see a strong program grow even stronger in every way. I am proud to be part of such a hard working, dedicated staff and a community of families committed to their children's education.
