Jill has been in the arena of teaching middle school for 15 years.  She has been married for 14 years to her husband, Shawn, who is also in education. They have 3 very energetic little boys who constantly keep them on the go.  She enjoys convincing children that she has found the fountain of youth on her parents' family farm,  making them wait to finish a read aloud until the next day (they say it is torture), and allowing her students to teach her how to moonwalk. 

She has her BS in Elementary Education from Missouri State University and her MS in School Counseling (K-12) from Lindenwood University. 

Robin has been teaching for 22 years, 3 years in 2nd grade, 3 years in special education and 15 years in first grade. This year she will start her 2nd year as a behavior interventionist. She has been married to her husband David for 25 years.   They have two daughters that bring a lot of laughter and fun in their lives. (a sophomore in college and a sophomore in high school) Robin loves to read, shopping for some picker uppers and making memories with her family and friends.
