All About Mrs. Shaffer
I was born and raised in Massillon, Ohio. I went to St. Barbara School K-8, then graduated high school from Washington High (Massillon) in 2003. I graduated from Kent State University in 2007 with a degree in Early Childhood Education. In 2011, I graduated from Ashland University with my Master's Degree in Education. It's hard to believe that this will be my 13th year teaching first grade at Sauder. The years have flown by! Each year has brought new lessons, experiences and challenges, and it has been amazing to watch each child learn and grow so much in the short time we are together.
My husband Mike and I have been married for 8 years. We have 6 1/2-year-old daughter, Emma, and a 5-year-old son, Micah. We love to play games, watch movies, and play outside together!
