            Lisa

            I am excited to come to work every day at ASC! I have been the Executive Director since 2003. I hold an Elementary Education degree from UW-Whitewater and received my Administrative Credential from UW-Milwaukee in 2010. Our daughter and I began at ASC in 2003 and she loved being a part of the ASC family. She loved her Teachers, experiences, field trips, the ability to complete her homework as well as the planned activities that allowed her time to create, explore, socialize and be a productive learner. She is now 21 years of age and will graduate from college in May 2018. My husband John and I enjoy cheering on the WI Badgers teams and the Saint Louis Women’s Basketball team where our daughter is a student athlete. Oregon is a great place to work and play!

            I earned my Associates degree in Arts & Science from UW-Rock County in 2004 and went on to further my education by earning my Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education with a Science minor from UW-Whitewater in 2007.  I also received my Administrator’s Credential in 2011 from UW-Milwaukee. 


            It was in 2001 when a college classmate informed me of her teaching position at ASC.  With my love for children and their enthusiasm, I thought it would be fun to job shadow her for a day.  Here I am 15 years later and very thankful I took the time to explore this occupation back in 2002.


            I held the position as Lead Teacher for two years before making the transition and becoming part of the Management Team in 2004.  I have been the Director for ASC ever since and look forward to many more years with ASC.


            My husband, Kevin, and I will always have a special place for ASC as this is where we first met.  We have two children together and are very excited for what life has instore for our family.  Kevin grew up in Oregon and we have great pride in knowing our children will have a great educational and athletic experience here.

            I joined After School Clubs in the summer of 2016. I graduated from UW-Whitewater in 2010 with a degree in Sociology and have been working in childcare ever since. I am currently taking courses through UW-Platteville and will receive my administrative credential in the spring. I have held many positions in childcare, starting as a summer camp counselor and growing with every step of my journey to ASC. Working with school age children is my passion because I strongly believe that programs like ours can help strengthen communities and build strong, self-aware individuals. In my spare time my husband, Matt, and I enjoy camping, hiking, and exploring area parks with our dog.  We are always working on home improvement projects, sometimes biting off more than we can chew, but learning as we go. As true Wisconsin fans, we can be found most weekends cheering on our Brewers, Packers, Bucks, and Badgers.  On Wisconsin!

            Christina


            I have attended UW- Platteville along with Madison Area Technical College where I have received credits pertaining to the childcare field.  I started working at ASC in 2012 when my mom and Jenna suggested working here.  My mom works at the Oregon High School where she is one of the School-to-Work coordinators.  I have tumbled for 10 years and really enjoy still being involved in tumbling.  While I’m not at work I love spending time with my family. 

             

            Jenna


            I was introduced to After School Clubs Inc. in 2012 through the School-to-Work program at Oregon High School.  ASC was highly recommended by the teachers as a great place to work. I gained additional experience and knowledge through volunteering with my grandma at her child care program and through courses at UW-Platteville.  In May of 2016 I married my high school sweetheart.  I love being a teacher and can not wait to have children of my own.  When not at work I enjoy spending time with my family and attending church.

             

            Jessica

            I started working here in 2005, through my high school’s School-To-Work program and have been here since.  ASC is a sought out child care center for school aged children in the community which is due to the dedicated staff, its desirable location and leading activities and opportunities provided for the students. Working here as I attended college gave me firsthand practice and has been a vital part of furthering my experience working with kids.  I have created many meaningful and lasting relationships with the staff , children and families.


            While working here part time I was able to study and further my education.  I studied at MATC in Madison and then pursed teaching at Edgewood College.  I received my Bachelor’s Degree in Studies in Education in 2015 with a strong focus in Early Childhood Education and Special Education.  Currently I am working mornings in the Oregon School District as an Early Childhood Special Education Paraprofessional.


            In my spare time I like to spend time with my family and friends.  I love to go out to the barn and ride my horse.  I also have a new puppy, Beretta, that is a little ball of energy.  I am a huge Badger fan and I especially love Badger Hockey.  In the summer I love to read and relax at our family cabin up in Minocqua, WI.

            I have my Assistant Childcare and Lead Childcare Certificates.  I found out about ASC thanks to my high school teacher Mrs. Wienert.  She had suggested that it would be a great fit for me and she was right.  I starting working here during the summer of 2017.  I am Mexican/American and my family means the world to me. 

             

            Larissa


            I have my Associates Degree in Early Education from Northeast Wisconsin Technical College.  I currently work for the Oregon School District as a Paraprofessional.  During high school I was able to gain many additional college credits and I also received my Lead Child Care certificate.  I am currently working on my Bachelor’s degree at UW-Whitewater in Early Education and Special Education. My sister and I attended ASC when we were younger.  I was reintroduced to ASC as a student in the School-To-Work program through the Oregon High School and currently have been a teacher here since 2015.

            I have worked at ASC since 2007.  During this time I have received credits related to the childcare field from both UW- Platteville and  UW- Milwaukee.  I was introduced to ASC through the School-to- Work program when I was in high school.  I now have two children and I love that I’m able to bring my son to work with me.  While I’m not at ASC I enjoy spending time with my family and reading books.   

             

            Linda L.

            I have worked at ASC since 1998.  I have acquired many skills in my time here with the amount of in-service trainings I have attended. I received a TEACH Scholarship and was able to obtain college credits for some online courses through UW-Platteville and UW-Milwaukee.   I am a mother of two daughters and I have two grandsons that attended ASC.  I have five acres of land with a house and barn to take care of along with 3 small dogs and other small animals to have fun with and keep me company.


            I first learned about ASC from my daughter.  She told me that ASC needed help and I applied.  The very next day I was working here!


             

            Bonnie


            I have  a Bachelor’s degree in Sociology and Art from UW-LaCrosse.  In years past, I have worked for the Oregon School District as a Substitute Teacher and Paraprofessional.  Along with these degrees I have also taken online courses from UW-Platteville and UW-Milwaukee.  I have had many in-service trainings and hands-on experiences while working at ASC since 1997.  I’m married with two grown sons who both attended ASC.  I recently became a grandma and glow everytime I talk about her.  I love traveling with my husband and spending time at our cozy cabin up North. I originally came to ASC to gain information about opening my own daycare.  While interviewing, the Director offered me a position on the spot.  I have stayed at this job because kids are a joy and they keep me laughing day after day.

              I have a Bachelor Degree in Science Administration Systems.  I  worked in Mazatlán, Sinaloa, Mexico for over 12 years in different schools such as the University of Occidente, Colegio de Bachilleres (High School) and CONALEP (Technical School.)  I taught computer languages.  I came to Wisconsin in 2003 and I started working for the Oregon School District in 2005.

             I was a second grade paraprofessional at Netherwood Knoll when I noticed ASC.  The children were always having so much fun and because of this I decided to apply to work here; I have been working at ASC for 12 years.   I love to work at ASC because it gives me the opportunity to get to know the children in different areas while playing games and going on field trips. 

            I am from Mazatlán, Sinaloa, Mexico and I speak English and Spanish.  I currently also work at Prairie View Elementary as an ESL paraprofessional, interpreter and translator.

             Melissa 


            I graduated from Edgewood College with a Bachelor's Degree in Educational Psychology and currently work at Netherwood Knoll Elementary and Brooklyn Elementary within the Oregon School District.  While in college, I did outreach and visited low income housing facilities to play outdoor games with children.

            Since I was eleven, I discovered I had a love for running.  Running became the focus of my life in high school and college.  I ran Division 1 NCAA Cross Country  and Track in Virginia.  Even though my competitive running career is over, I still enjoy running.  I currently coach my own cross country high school and middle school teams. In the Summer of 2016, I supported an individual while she worked at ASC.  I  decided to apply to ASC due to the positive atmosphere I observed amongst employees and the management. I'm looking forward to building relationships with more students within the Oregon School District.
