Hello, I am Danielle Larger.  I am so excited to be teaching my first year at Big Lake Elementary in K-2 intensive resource!  Prior to this, I was working as the building sub at Redington Jr/Sr High School finishing up my master’s in special education.  Originally, I came to Alaska from Ohio sixteen years ago serving in the Air Force for four years at Elmendorf Air Force Base.  After the military, I wanted to finish my dream of becoming a teacher earning a bachelors in elementary education at University of Alaska, Anchorage.  I have three wonderful children.  My boys are fifteen and thirteen years old, while my daughter is five.  My other passion has been teaching swimming for seventeen years.  I enjoy running through the woods, hiking and biking with my children, researching family genealogy, scrapbooking, and traveling.  I look forward to this new experience in my life and learning with your children.
