I am very excited for another year at McHenry Middle School. I graduated from Carthage College, and obtained my Master's Degree through the University of St. Francis. I love to read, cook, and go boating & fishing with my husband. I have one daughter named Charlotte who is 6 years old and starting 1st grade, and a 3 year old daughter named Ellie! Mr. Anderson is a 6th grade Science teacher at Parkland School. I have a black lab mix named Grace. I am looking forward to a fantastic school year!

Social Studies materials will include a textbook, inquiry journal, and Google Classroom.

Parents: please let me know if you would like to be added as a "guardian" on your student's Google Classroom. You would receive weekly emails from Google about their assignments and materials.

Hello!  My name is Mrs. Schnurr, and I am a language arts teacher on the 6 white team.  This is my 24th year as a middle school teacher, and I am so excited for an amazing year.  When I’m not here at MMS, you can usually find me spending time with my husband and kids, Chase (16) and Sidney (12).  Together we enjoy boating, swimming, making homemade pizza, and of course….. READING!  

For questions about daily assignments and upcoming projects, please check Google Classroom.

Welcome to McHenry Middle School! My name is Shari Kagan, I am excited to be your students math teacher at MMS. I graduated from Northern Illinois University with my Bachelors degree and I earned my Master’s in Teaching and Leadership from St. Xavier University. I had a busy summer with my three children (Nathan, Jacob, and Hannah). Outside of school, I volunteer in my community with Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, the Marengo Union Library, and at my church. When we have some free time, I enjoy reading, bike riding and hiking with my family. I hope you enjoy your first year at MMS!

In my spare time I enjoy being outside gardening, boating, swimming, and reading a good book.  I also love spending time with my family, my husband Bill and my twin sons, Jeff and Joe. I am looking forward to working with you and helping make your first year at MMS an amazing experience. 

Hi, I am the assistant on the  6th grade white team, so I get to do a lot of cool things. I have been at MMS for years in self-contained classrooms, but because of a lapse in judgement, I was released into the wild. Now I get to talk and hang out with all of  6th grade.

I am easy to spot- my hair is always changing colors! I take my spirit day serious . So let's dress weird and show are school spirit!  I am excited to be the youngest on our team and I feel privileged to learn from such great mentors. Please do not be scared to reach out. I am here to help! This year is going to be a Fabulous !                      

My Motto :   When in doubt, freak them out.
