Welcome to third grade! 

Hello! I look forward to meeting you all! 

I am Mrs. Ruggaber. 

It is with great pleasure that I welcome you and your child into the world of third grade! I am very excited to have the opportunity to work with your child and watch them grow! I know this will be another great year and I plan to tackle it with vengeance! 

This will be my 27th year teaching third grade and I simply love it! I truly couldn't imagine doing anything else with the passion I have for these third graders! I grew up and live in Racine with my husband, who is an art teacher in Racine Unified. We have two cats, Georgia and Vincent that I am sure you will hear a lot about over the school year! This summer we saw Earth Wind and Fire and we met Rainn Wilson and took in a few Brewer games! 

Besides teaching I love Vera Bradley, Star Wars, and all things gnomes!

Here are some pictures that capture who I am. :)
