My name is Jesse Alo, and this will be my 28th year of teaching, my 6th year in sixth grade, and my 15th year in West Salem. I graduated from UW-La Crosse with a degree in Elementary Education, and I then completed my Master's Degree at UW-La Crosse with a focus on The Responsive Classroom.
I became a teacher because I LOVE children and wanted to do something to help them feel happy and successful each day.
I love teaching in the same school district that my kids attend! I LOVE the campus setting. I love living close to the schools and being a part of this small community. I am happy that West Salem has a focus on technology and that all of our students have iPads.
My advice for my students is to work their hardest and to simply do their very best every single day. I love proactive, positive students. I want my students to enjoy learning, and I love helping build their self-esteem and their math skills.
I have four children and two step-children. My husband works for the West Salem Police Department. I love to read, run, play basketball, shop, hang out with my family, and play with my kids. I absolutely love traveling, and I prefer the heat of summer!
I have so many great memories from teaching and living here in West Salem!
