David Mielke
Principal – K-8 School
Our mission at Crown of Life is to prepare each child academically, socially, and spiritually. I believe that only by working with every member of our Crown of Life family can we meet this responsibility. My goal is to create and maintain a solid culture and climate to help foster a positive environment that promotes student success in all areas and teacher wellbeing. 

I have had the opportunity to serve as a principal, teacher, and coach for the past 28 years. Most of those years were teaching and coaching at St. Croix Lutheran Academy, our partner high school.

I have been married to Penny, our 4th grade teacher, for the past 27 years. We have 3 wonderful children, all who attended Crown of Life. I enjoy anything outdoors such as hiking, fishing, boating, or working in the yard. Now that our family is grown, we enjoy every opportunity that we can spend together.
