My name is Rachel Dunn and I am happy to be joining third grade at South Union.  I am graduating from the University of Iowa this May with a B.A. in Elementary Education.  I also have endorsements in Reading and Talented and Gifted.  At South Union, I am looking forward to having my first classroom and working with a diverse student population.  It seems like there is a special community at South Union and I am excited to join the team!  I grew up in Clive for 10 years, so I am also looking forward to returning to the Des Moines area.  When I;m not at school, I enjoy traveling, cooking, reading, and spending time outdoors.

My name is Hali Reed and I’m so excited to begin my teaching career as a 2nd-grade teacher at South Union! I had a great experience doing my student teaching at South Union where I met great staff and students. After graduating from Iowa State University in December I enjoyed my time being a substitute teacher. In my free time, I like to read, love on my dogs, and spend time with family and friends.
