Kristen Schroeder, SHS math teacher! Ms. Schroeder graduated from Iroquois West High School and Northern Illinois University. Her love for small schools comes from her own high school experience and how groups of students overlap with common interests. Kristen enjoys reading a good book or watching a movie and cannot wait to follow her favorite sports team, the Somonauk Bobcats! She may even cheer them on by twirling batons that are on fire, she really can! Welcome to Somonauk, Ms Schroeder!


Stephanie has always had a passion for teaching, so lucky for our little kindergarteners to start their education with her. She graduated from Yorkville High School and Illinois State University. Ms. Kasper already loves the teamwork that she has already experienced at Somonauk. Her favorite vacation location would be anywhere near a beach and you would probably find her reading a good book there. Welcome to #432!


And a one and a two and …...Welcome Ms Kats, new band director! She is a graduate of Wheaton Warrenville South and North Central College. Ms Kats is looking forward to teaching in a smaller district and is excited to build relationships with Somonauk Students. If she were not a teacher, she would enjoy being a travel blogger and photographer. An interesting fact about Ms Kats is that she earned the highest award achievable in Girl Scouts, the Gold Award! With that she seems like a perfect fit to wear blue and GOLD for our Bobcats!


5th and 6th grade are excited to have the support from Hannah Thompson, the new special education teacher at SMS. She graduated from Naperville North and Northern Illinois University. Ms. Thompson loves to connect with each students’ personality and interests. Her favorite vacation spot is Siesta Keys in Florida where she may be relaxing reading a book or spending time with her dog, Karen!

MELISSA BENSON
Melissa Benson is back!! She graduated from Somonauk High School, graduated from Illinois State University, taught at Somonauk for numerous years, and then stayed at home for a few years with her own children. But Mrs. Benson is back teaching second grade and wants to leave a positive, long-lasting impression on her students! She enjoys vacationing in the Bahamas, Tennessee, Florida, and Michigan. If she were not a teacher, her dream job would be Guy Fieri’s sidekick on Diner’s, Drive-ins, and Dive’s.


JENNA BACCHI
Hola! Jenna Bacchi is the new Spanish teacher at SHS. She is a graduate of Downers Grove South and Northern Illinois University. She feels the best thing about teaching is helping students realize their full potential and that they are capable of more than they think they are. Ms. Bacchi teaches yoga in her free time and her favorite vacation spot is Yellowstone.


HANNAH BAZAN
Welcome to JRW, 3rd grade!
Hannah Bazan is a graduate of Yorkville High School and Illinois
State University. She is excited to teach in #432 to be able to work alongside other passionate educators! Ms. Bazan feels the best thing about working with students is being able to build relationships and introducing students to new things. If she did not already have her dream job of being an educator, she would enjoy being a professional taste tester. Ms. Bazan loves to go for long bike rides, cheering on the Chicago Cubs, and a nice cold sweet tea.
