Meet Mrs. Boles

     My name is Karessa Boles. I teach 4th grade at Salem Elementary District 111. I have been teaching for 17 years. Most of those years were at North Wamac Grade School in Centralia. This will be my fourth year at Salem and I am thrilled to have the opportunity to teach the wonderful children of Salem.

     I grew up in Centralia, but I have lived in Salem for 13 years with my husband John. We are blessed with 2 great children, Brenden and Trent. Our family is very involved in sports and we enjoy cheering for the Cardinals, Fighting Illini, the Salem Wildcats, and of course the Franklin Park Bobcats!

      I love to spend time with my family. We stay very busy with all their activities, especially sports. My family is very important to me and I cherish all our time together.

     I am excited about spending each day with your child and I will do all I can to make your child successful at Franklin Park. I am confident we can work together to help your child achieve their goals. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns.
