In the classroom, Mrs. DeSatterlee places an emphasis on sharing and caring as a “kindergarten family.” She provides an upbeat, active and fluid classroom atmosphere. Classes are structured, but creativity and co-operative activities are strongly encouraged. Mrs. DeSatterlee has a love of literature and introduces the works of many of her favorite authors, (i.e. Kevin Henkes, Lois Ehlert, and Leo Lionni) through Book Cookin’ and Awesome Author Art. By the end of the year, her children easily recognize many of the authors’ literary and artistic styles. Kindergarten provides a whole language setting with a strong phonetic emphasis. In Kindergarten, students truly have fun while learning!

Mrs. DeSatterlee is married and has two daughters who attended Prince of Peace Christian School. Mrs. DeSatterlee and her family are members of Prince of Peace Lutheran Church and are active in the church and school.
