Mrs. Evan's Bio

My name is Dawn Evans, 4th Grade Teacher at Spring Brook Elementary. I began my teaching career in 1999 at Spring Brook and have enjoyed being there ever since. I have taught both 3rd and 4th grade. I have a Masters Degree in Reading from Lewis University. Also, I am a National Board Certified Teacher (NBCT). Having my past students come back and visit after years of being gone is the highest compliment I can ask for. When I am not teaching I love spending time with my family especially with my family. I love gardening and working on my flower beds outside. Inside I love to decorate and organize.

Mrs. Good's Bio

My name is Kathryn Good. I started my teaching career in District 204 back in 2012, and have taught 3rd, 4th, & 5th grade at Georgetown, Brooks, and Young. I grew up in Naperville attending Wheatland, Crone, and Neuqua. My Bachelor’s in Education is from North Central College and my Masters in Reading is from Lewis University. When I am not at school, I spend my days with my son and twin daughters playing outside, reading, and visiting local attractions. The thing I love about teaching is building a community with my students and seeing them grow over the year both personally and academically.
