Meet the amazing staff of Maude Sanders!

Throughout the next few weeks, we’ll be introducing you to the wonderful people who make our school such a special place. We’re kicking things off with our **Encore Team**!

Meet Mrs. Davis, Mr. Schwab, Mr. Barber, and Mr. Lohrer, who help our Badgers learn, create, explore, and grow through Art, Physical Education, Technology, and Music.

Take a look at their spotlights to learn a few fun facts about each of them, how long they’ve been part of the Maude Sanders family, and which House they proudly represent!

Help us celebrate our Encore Team by showing them some love in the comments!

Stay tuned as we continue introducing more members of our Maude Sanders staff!
