Hello! My name is Mrs. Larson. I am a fourth grade teacher

at Seth Whitman Elementary School in Belvidere, IL. I have been

teaching for 8 1/2 years. Previously, I taught fifth grade at Lincoln

School. Before teaching, I was a speech pathologist in Belvidere as well.

I have been married for over nine years now. I have one daughter named

Tessa. She is one and a pure joy! I have a cat named Romeo

(Romie for short) that I love to spoil rotten. My family is very important

to me. I have a mom, dad, two sisters, and the cutest nieces and nephew ever.

They all live in Colorado. I love to visit them because I get to explore in the

mountains. I also love going to the beach. I grew up in Bettendorf, Iowa and

went to college at the University of Iowa. GO HAWKS! I also went to graduate

school at the University of Wisconsin. My hobbies include playing with my

daughter, watching movies, reading, listening to music, scrapbooking, hiking,

gardening, and spending time with friends.   My goal is to some day learn to play

the guitar that is gathering dust in my guest room. Below are some pictures.
