Name: Stephanie Roederer
Background in Education: This is my 17th year overall and my 13th year at OAS.
Fun Fact: Before I was a teacher, I lived in Chicago and worked downtown on Michigan Avenue for two years.
Who was your favorite teacher when you were in school and why: Ms. King, my 7th grade creative writing teacher. She gave us tons of fun writing prompts, and she was the first person to tell me I am a good writer.
Words you live by: "Only when it's dark enough can you see the stars." Martin Luther King, Jr. This quote reminds me that if we didn't go through hard times, we wouldn't be able to appreciate the good things.
