P.E./Health
Timothy Anderson
andersont@ritenourschools.org

My name is Mr. Anderson, I’m one of the P.E. teachers here at Buder. I’m starting my 23rd year of teaching and my 19th year at Buder. I received my undergraduate from University of West Florida in Pensacola FL, and my Master's in Educational Administration from SIUE in Edwardsville, IL.

I have been married to my Beautiful Wife for 13 years, we have a blended family that includes 3 wonderful children. Gabriel Anderson, and Marianne and Everett Hicks. When I’m not teaching my favorite thing to do is spend time with my Family and Friends. We like to go camping, hiking, biking, kayaking, spending the day at the river, sitting outside in our backyard and doing home improvement projects.

Art
Jennifer Halderman
haldermanj@ritenourschools.org

My name is Mrs. Halderman and I am the art teacher at Buder Elementary. Students get to have a meaningful art experience by experimenting with drawing, clay, plaster, paint, pastels, and more in each grade level. With these materials, we will be doing a variety of lessons in the studio that will aid in artistic skills, social/ emotional skills, and motor skills. I can't wait to create with you!
 

Library Media Specialist
Chrissy Phillips

My name is Chrissy Phillips and I am the Librarian here at Buder.  This is my 27th year in education and I truly love coming to work each day. My goal as the Librarian is to help your child find their passion.  We do many exploration activities during students' six years in the Library.  I love seeing students grow each year and watching their interests change and mature.  It is an honor to get to serve all of the kids from kindergarten to fifth grade.
