A New Face to our School

Student Reporter: Megan Villa


This new school year at Cedar Grove-Belgium School District we have the privilege of having many new different faces, students and teachers. One new teacher in the high school is Miss. VanDeLoo, the new Special Education Teacher.


Miss. VanDeLoo always knew she wanted to be some kind of teacher but it was not until high school when she realized that she wanted to specialize in Special Education. She helped out in a lot of organizations such as Special Olympics, or helping out in the special education classrooms at her school where she saw how much of an impact these teachers truly have. Along with that she also helped her brother a lot through school because he suffers from a seizure disorder.


When asked how she likes it here at Cedar Grove-Belgium she responded by saying, “I love it here! The students and staff are so friendly and helpful. It’s a great place for a new teacher.”


When Miss. VanDeLoo is not in school one of her favorite things to do is to read all day long, and has recently started playing tennis. She also loves to watch the Brewer’s and packers play. You also might see her drive around exploring the new community because she is new to it.


Miss VanDeLoo graduated this past spring in May of 2008 with a degree in Exceptional Education. Within her degree she has certificates in cognitive disabilities, learning disabilities, and emotional behavior disabilities. Before coming here to Cedar Grove-Belgium she was a day care teacher for four years at Kimberly, Wisconsin. She also was a special education teacher in Bowler, Wisconsin for one semester.


So if you see her in the hall or around town make sure to welcome her into the community, we are glad that she is here!
