Special Education Email Phone: 920-349-3228 Dear Students and Parents,
Welcome to John Hustis Elementary School! This is my eighth year teaching special education, and my fourth year teaching at John Hustis Elementary School. I love being part of the John Hustis family here. I grew up in Geneva, Illinois. It is about an hour west of Chicago. Despite, growing up in Illinois, I am born and raised Packer fan. I live for football season.
I went to the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point and majored in Special Education. I taught cross-categorical special education at McKinley Elementary School in Stevens Point, Wisconsin for two years. I then taught elementary cross-categorical special education for two years in Geneva, Illinois. I have now taught in Hustisford for 3 years.
I absolutely love teaching and believe it is what I was born to do. I am a fourth generation teacher. My mom is a retired kindergarten teacher and my sister teaches fourth grade. My great-grandma and grandma both taught as well. My aunt and three cousins are also in special education---we say teaching is the family business! I love helping and encouraging students to reach their highest potential. I love to be creative and try new things in my teaching. I believe students learn best when taught using the 5 senses and I try to incorporate this into my classroom. I have a flexible, accepting and encouraging classroom where students' gifts are channeled and allowed to shine.
I got married in July 2019, to my husband Jake. We have a 1 year old golden retriever named Hazel.
Besides teaching and Packer football, some of my other loves are Target, colored pens, tacos, Harry Potter and cooking and traveling with my husband.
I look forward to growing and learning with you this year! If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. My email is: scheidert@hustisford.k12.wi.us.
Thanks!
Mrs. Scheider
