Principal NOTES
We have some exciting news that I would love to share with you. We have filled our two open teaching positions with wonderfully experienced teachers. It's not often a principal gets to recruit two 2014 Teachers of the Year from other schools, but this was an exceptional year for applications! These two also bring with them Ladue connections and a breadth of experiences. Here's a bit of an introduction and I know you'll join me in welcoming them to Old Bonhomme.
Going into 4th Grade will be Jennifer Strub. Jen actually did a long term leave for Stephanie Chapie at OB in 4th grade and a Reed Gifted/Enrichment teacher's leave in 2004. That's where she met her fiance - Tom Hadfield, a former Reed teacher and now FGC PE teacher. She has many years of 4th and 5th grade teaching experience, having taught 2 years in Bayless School District, and the last 7 years in Rockwood. She's been a leader in PLC, Parent Engagement, Curriculum writing, Character Education-Leader in Me, Service Learning, and received numerous awards and recognition.

Going into First Grade will be Lisa Schreiner. Lisa has 18 years of experience with the majority of years teaching in Kindergarten and First Grade in the Hazelwood School District. Two of her former principals are both administrators who worked as teachers for Mrs. K, or with her as administrators, and couldn't say enough positive things about her work with students, parents and colleagues. She has a wealth of experiences common to our work, including work with ELL learners, Assessment Literacy, PBIS, International Nights, Culturally Responsive Teaching, Social Committee, Kagan trainer, Science Fair, mentoring, and has also received numerous grants and recognition. Her Ladue connections include her husband, Chris, the Reed Principal, and her two children who attend Spoede School.
As we say hello to some new faces next year, it saddens me to have to say goodbye to a familiar face around Old Bonhomme as well. Our devoted nurse, Roxanne Comens, has announced that she will be retiring after this school year. She will be greatly missed around here, but we wish her the best in starting a new chapter of her life!
