These are the teachers that brought us to the point we are at now
Mrs. Danhke and Mrs. Lovell(Schmidt)-These 2 people helped us through pre-k and kindergarten taking us from A-Z with letter people!!

Mrs. Rhoda-She always let everyone know when we got "New Shoes" while she taught us during 1st grade!

Mrs. Tuinstra-Our 2nd grade teacher with the "famous" STICKS!

Miss Sharda-3rd grade, turning over new stuff and making every minute of it FUN!!

Miss Dumez(Mrs. Clevenger)-4th grade. One thing I remember is making sock puppets to portray Bible charcters in little plays.

Mrs. Plantenga-5th grade. Got us ready for Jr. High and finished out the year with a really fun water fight!!

Mrs. Buchman-6th/8th grade homeroom and Language Arts teacher. She's brought us up through Jr. High and taught us just about every vocab word you can think of.

Mr. Laverell-6th grade science and math teacher. He taught us well. And he was a BIG treky fan!!!

Mr. Huisman-6th/7th grade social studies teacher and Bible. The biggest Beatles fan I know taught us locations in the world, history of the world and Bible, too!

Miss Vander Lugt-7th grade science and homeroom. A very "hands-on" science teacher tried to let us learn by expeirence more than reading and taking notes which made that year more fun.

Mr. Postma-7th/8th grade math. Frankly, I think he scares us all with his evil laugh and new equations, but he's a great teacher.

Mr. Tuesink-7th/8th grade history. He's taught everything to us from 200 B.C.(well, close to it) to the "Nylon Raid" during WWII.

Mrs. Young-8th grade science. One of the best science teachers we have, mixing hands-on with notes and reading for a real cool science year!


To all the teachers:
We all want to thank each and every one of you for educating us and preparing us for high school. I think we know how we can "survive" everything from a math test to facing our peers. Thank you for expecting the best of our abilitys because that just made us work 10 times harder. We'll miss you all next year, but we'll also know we're ready!!=)
