Hello! My name is Monica Balash (Suding). This is my first year teaching at Sunman Elementary, although I have five and a half years of experience teaching in Avon Community Schools. I graduated from East Central High School in 2006 and then from Indiana University Purdue University- Indianapolis (IUPUI) in 2010, where I also played Division I volleyball for the Jaguars. I am married to my wonderful husband Bryant, and we have three girls. Our twins, Abigail and Madelyn, are three years old, and Olivia will turn one in October. When I'm not spending time with family or at work, I enjoy running and crafting of any kind. I´m looking forward to a wonderful year in Second Grade! Fun Fact: This is the same classroom that I attended when I was in Second Grade! The school year was 1997-1998, and my teacher was Mrs. Stutler. ?

Hi! My name is Wendy Beck, and I grew up in this 'neck of the woods'. My parents still live in our family home a mile or so from the blinking red light at Negangard's Corner. I graduated from Milan High School in 1984 (yes, home of the '54 state champs- go Hoosiers!) and earned my teaching degree from Butler University. My first teaching position was at the old North Dearborn Elementary, and now I'm proud to be a Sunman Tiger!

I've been with Sunman Elementary for the last two and and a half years and look forward to continuing to work with the Students and Staff for the 2017/2018 School Year!
