Principal

Education degree(s): 

Masters degree Educational Administration & Principal certification from U.W. Milwaukee
BS Elementary Education degree from U.W. Milwaukee

Passion: 

My passion for the outdoors probably stems from growing up on a Black Angus farm.  I was involved in 4-H, Grange and other service organizations as a girl.  I also worked on the Horicon Marsh for the Youth Conservation Corp.  I feel a sense of "home" when I'm outside. I also have a passion for young people and relate well with them.  Perhaps I am a kid at heart!

Books I love:

Driftless by David Rhodes (set in rural Wisconsin)

What is the What by Dave Eggars

Behind the Beautiful Forevers by Katherine Boo

The Ladies #1 Detective Agency by Alexander McCall Smith
