Mrs. Sue Niehaus

I'm a graduate of Elmhurst University with a Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education and a minor degree in History. I taught a combined 3rd and 4th grade class at Zion Lutheran School in Hinsdale before coming to Trinity in 2008. While at Trinity, I taught 5th and 6th grade until retiring in 2018. This current school year, I'm returning as the 5th and 6th grade teacher for this current school year. My husband and I are the proud parents of three daughters and grandparents of four children. My favorite Bible verse reminds me of God’s promises to be with all of us, through every joy and challenge: Romans 8:38 “For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, …nor anything else in all creation will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
