Mesa Middle School

I'm Lance Schoenwald!  I grew up in Sawyer, ND on our family Ranch and Dairy farm.  I was very active in school growing up, playing Football, Basketball, and Baseball.  I was also active in Choir, Marching Band, Swing Band, Prep Band and Drama.

While attending Williston State, and Minot State University and receiving my B.S. in Physical Education I played college baseball.  I starting my teaching and coaching career in 1996, and became the baseball coach at Minot State.  I coached at MSU until 2000, when I started teaching PE for Minot public schools.  In 2006 I left the full time teaching to start my Professional baseball Umpiring career.  

Since then I have obtained my Master in education from Ashford University.  I have taught states of ND, SD, LA, FL, KS, NV, and TX.  When I'm not busy teaching, or officiating you can find me cooking!  I love to cook, and HATE doing the dishes!
