Hi! My name is Susie Rand, and I am thrilled to be joining the Fox River School District as the ARS school counselor/ social worker. I have spent the last 9+ years working in the same capacity in Belvidere District 100. I am a big believer that supportive relationships and social/emotional development can lead to improved learning.
I started my career as a high-school English teacher in the Chicago Public Schools but soon had a family. I then stayed home to raise a son and 2 daughters (now young adults). My husband, Carlos, and I live in Barrington and enjoy our community of friends, pickleball and golf (sometimes), staying active, and reading (when we can).
Please do not hesitate to reach out and introduce yourself! I absolutely love what I do and cannot wait to get to work with and support the students, families, and staff in FRG. #WeareFRG
My name is Sarah Monroe and I am the Director of Student Services. I am so excited to be here! I am a mom of three kids that are growing way too fast.

I am looking forward to being a part of the Fox River Grove community! #WeareFRG

¡Hola todos! My name is Mrs. Mertes. My role at FRGMS this year will be Spanish for grades 7-8 and ESL for grades 5-8. This will be my 5th year as a classroom teacher, and I have also worked as a Bilingual Paraprofessional and a K-12 tutor. I believe that Bilingualism is a superpower. A few fun facts about me: I started learning Spanish in middle school and continued taking classes throughout college. I have a Master's Degree in Curriculum & Instruction. My family includes my husband, our 2 sons, and our 2 dogs. We love camping in Door County, WI and just enjoying the outdoors in general. I'm thrilled to share my passion for the Spanish language and English as a second language with my students this school year! #WeareFRG

Our family shares a love of music and my girls and I love Taylor Swift. #WeareFRG
