About Mrs. Van Singel . . .
"I love being able to work with 6th graders everyday. The challenges and growth we experience on a daily basis are what make teaching so exciting. I believe all 6th graders can be and feel successful. Outside of the classroom I love spending time with my husband, Nick, and my two children, Alexis and Charlie. We love taking road trips, sharing new adventures, and eating good food together. I also love to run long distances, simply be outdoors, and read." |
About Mrs. Lillibridge . . .
"I graduated from Grand Valley State University with a major in Mathematics and an emphasis in Elementary Education. I knew from a very young age that I wanted to be a teacher. I love teaching and fostering the same love of learning in students. Though I have spent the past two years in kindergarten, I am very excited to be teaching 6th graders this year! When I'm not teaching, it's likely I'm spending time with with husband, Nate, and our energetic dog, Reese. I also enjoy all things outdoors including hunting, fishing, camping, kayaking, and running." |
