Meet Your Teacher!
Hello, my name is Mrs. Schroeder and I will be your child's 8th grade Social Studies teacher for the 2026-2027 school year. This is my 20th year teaching in West New York School District. Previous to my coming to West New York I spent 2 years teaching in a private school in Jersey City. I graduated from Saint Peter's College with a BA in Humanities and a Master's Degree in Education with a certificate specializing in grades K-8.
I believe the most important thing I can do as a teacher is to create a classroom environment in which students feel safe and comfortable. From the minute they walk in the door on the first day of school to the time they leave at the end of the year, I want each of my students to know that they are a valuable member of my classroom. Along with this, it is important for students to get to know each other and to work together as a team. My hope is that your child will come to school excited to learn, that they will see each day as an adventure in learning.
Please feel free to email me at any time about your child at [email protected] .
If you would like to meet with me please call the school or email me to set up an appointment. Please give a day or two notice so that I can ensure all teachers and meeting space is available to discuss your child. I look forward to working with you on the success of your child.
