Hello! My name is Shannon Anderson. I was born and raised right here in Rensselaer. I married Matt Anderson, sergeant of the Rensselaer Police Department. We have 2 daughters: Emily, fifth grade, and Madison, first grade. We also have 2 cats and a dog named Lucy. Education: I got my Bachelor's Degree from Franklin College, my Master's Degree from Indiana Wesleyan University, and my License in High Ability Education from Ball State University. This is my 16th year teaching first grade.

My name is Kelly Geleott. I grew up in Rensselaer and graduated from the Rensselaer Central School Corporation. I am married to Pat Geleott, art teacher for both elementary schools. We have two children. I received my Bachelor of Science in elementary education with a Kindergarten endorsement from Ball State University. In 2001, I received my Master of Education degree from Olivet Nazarene University. I have taught Kindergarten, second grade, and I am currently in my second year of teaching first grade. It is my desire to help every student experience success. I will provide a nurturing environment devoted to enhancing the abilities of all children.

Please see my Van Rensselaer webpage! Thanks!

My name is Sherry O'Dette and this is my 11th year of teaching Kindergarten and my 13th year overall. I grew up in Tinley Park, IL but moved to Rensselaer 9 years ago. My husband, Rick O'Dette, is the Head Baseball Coach at Saint Joseph's College. We have a 5 year old son Ricky and an almost 2 year old daughter Aly (Alyssa). I received my Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education from Saint Joseph's College and am in the process of receiving my certification for High Ability Education from Indiana State University.

This is my third year at RCSC. Last year I was at Van as a third grade teacher. This year I'm excited to move to Monnett to work with the 1st graders!

As a parent of four children, I know the importance of working with my child's teacher to maximize learning. I have an open door policy and encourage your input and comments. My goals are to have your child love school and have a life-long love of learning!!
