Ms. Sheahan and Class October 2019“Mrs. Sheahan is always willing to help other teachers and students. She worked tirelessly at the start of the year to get new (and old) staff members set up with Wonders Accounts as well as other technology needs. This week when there was no sub, she had 48 students in her room for a math lesson and made it look easy,” said Principal Loemker.

Loemker added, “In addition, she serves as a second grade representative on the District Curriculum Council and gives of her own time to improve education for students across the district. Mrs. Sheahan is always calm, cool, and collected with challenging students and seeks creative ways to meet their needs. She maintains positive relationships with parents and staff members. She is without a doubt, an invaluable asset to our school community.”
