My name is Heather Schreiner, and I am a Special Education teacher at Medford Area Senior High School. I currently live in Medford but am originally from Athens, WI where I graduated from Athens High School. I have two older sisters, Lynn and Katie. I am also an aunt to two adorable little nephews.
I went to college at UW-LaCrosse and graduated in the summer of 2016 with a Bachelor's of Science in Exercise Sports Science and now here I am, a teacher. I became a teacher in a very roundabout way. I decided to become a substitute teacher in order to have another income and eventually just fell in love with it. I worked as a paraprofessional for the final two months of the 2017-2018 school year at Athens Elementary School and was amazed at the difference I was making in the little boy's life I was working with. It was very touching so I decided to apply to Medford Area School District as a paraprofessional and came out a teacher. I wouldn't trade the experience for anything.
Outside of teaching, I enjoy anything that involves sports and Disney. I coach both volleyball and softball at the high school level for the Medford Area School District. Also, I love anything to do with Disney: trivia, movies, music, etc. I'm also a big musical fan. My favorite being "Wicked."
