Teacher's bio

My name is Grace Calhoon.  I have been teaching at Mendota Elementary School since 1988.  I graduated from Ripon College with a BA in Music Education.  I earned my Master of Science in Teaching with a specialization in reading from The University of Chicago.  I enjoy taking classes, attending workshops, and reading professional literature to stay current with issues and trends in education. 

I relish spending time with my family and friends, attending my children's sporting events and music programs, going out to eat, and barbecuing on our deck. Walking, swimming, and reading are favorite activities when I have free time.
