Mrs. Becky Hudson (Grades 2-3)

Mrs. Hudson received her degree in Elementary Education from UW-RF and is now our 2nd and 3rd grade teacher.  She has had various other teaching jobs in the past, but has found BCS to be the best fit because of its wonderful Bible-based curriculum.  In the classroom she is admired for promoting creativity within her students and her kids especially enjoy the "creation station".

Mrs. Hudson lives in Hammond with her husband Phil, and a wee on the way.  She enjoys biking, camping, reading, drawing, and growing house plants.  She attends the Menomonie Church of the Nazarene.  Mrs. Hudson's favorite Bible verses are Philippians 4:4-7.  "Rejoice in the Lord always.  I will say it again:  Rejoice!  Let your gentleness be evident to all.  The Lord is near.  Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.  And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus."

Mrs. Rosalie Wieser (Grades 4-6)

Mrs. Wieser received her degree in Elementary Education and a minor in mathematics from UW-River Falls.  Before coming to BCS she was a substitute teacher for River Falls and St. Paul Public Schools.  As she teaches grades 4-6, Mrs. Wieser especially loves that her students are kind, respectful, and eager to learn.  She also enjoys the support she receives from all the parents and teachers.  She is patient, easy-going, and caring.  In the classroom, she is especially admired for guiding the students to find the answers themselves and building their confidence.

Mrs. Wieser grew up near Connersville, WI, but now lives in St. Paul with her husband, Keith and their daschund, Krum.  They are expecting their first child in June.  Mrs. Wieser enjoys knitting, crocheting, reading, canoeing, camping, and settling down with a good Jane Austen book.  She attends Eagle Brook Church in Lino Lakes, MN.  Her favorite Bible verse is Matthew 11:28.  "Come to me all those that are weary and heavy burdened and I will give you rest."

Mr. Matt Olson (Physical Education @ High School)
