Greg Mandziara

Lutheran North

Science Teacher

We are so excited to welcome Mr. Greg Mandziara to our ministry team.  Mr. Mandziara grew up in Michigan and attended Utica Community Schools, including Henry Ford II and Central Michigan University. His name may sound familiar as he is married to one of our science teachers, Nicole Mandziara. Please take a moment to learn a little more about Greg and his journey to becoming part of our ministry team here at Lutheran North.

I have lived in this area my whole life. My wife and kids are my reason to get up each day that God gives me. I taught for 27 years in public education. I got to see first-hand the great things that my children experienced here and wanted to be a part of it.

Please warmly welcome Greg as a Mustang and get to know him through our Staff Spotlight 20 Questions below!!
