Kindergarten Teacher

Welcome to our kindergarten! Our room is a busy place, full of hands on learning opportunities suitable for the 5 and 6 year old child. Classroom learning involves the whole child: spiritual, academic, emotional, social and physical. Over all modes of developing, each student is encouraged to grow as a child of God.

Hi! I am Susanne Nelson, kindergarten teacher at Delavan Christian School. As an early childhood teacher, I have taught in a variety of settings and programs. This is my 13th year year as kindergarten taeacher at DCS. I enjoy the energy and enthusiasm of the young child. Each year, I notice that through the children, God has placed great beauty and variety in our classroom. How fitting, since kindergarten means child's garden!

My husband, Ron, is also a teacher. We have 3 adult children and are transitioning into the empty nest stage. We are members of Christ Episcopal Church of Delavan.
