Mrs. Baughman (Math & Social Studies):
This is the 9th year that I've had the pleasure to work at Addams. I
graduated from William Tyndale College in Farmington Hills, MI, where I
majored in English and minored in elementary curriculum. I earned my
teaching certificate at Madonna University in Livonia, MI. I earned my
Master’s Degree at Marygrove College in Detroit, MI. I have been married
for 12 years and have a son, Malachi (5), and a daughter, Molly (1). My
husband, Aaron, is a middle school principal. In my spare time, I enjoy
spending time with my family, singing, playing the piano, listening to music,
and playing/watching sports. I also enjoy traveling. Some of the exciting
places I have been are Hawaii, Mexico, Costa Rica, Panama, the Bahamas, the
U. S. Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, California, Grand Cayman (where I
snorkeled with sting rays!), and Disney World. I decided to become a teacher
because I wanted to make a difference in the lives of young people just as my
teachers did for me. I truly enjoy helping students grow and learn. Feel
free to contact me by email at baugje01@southredford.net, by calling the
school, or by writing a note in your child's planner.
Mrs. Nagelhout (Language Arts & Science):
I have had the great pleasure and honor of teaching and working with South
Redford families for over ten years. Prior to coming to Addams Elementary
School, I taught at Fisher Elementary School. While at Fisher Elementary, I
taught first, second, third and fifth grades as well as a summer
Kindergarten Connections program. I graduated from The University of
Michigan in Ann Arbor with a double major in Fine Arts and Language Arts. I
received my Master’s degree from Wayne State University in Detroit
specializing in Educational Research and Evaluation. I have recently
attended Madonna University while working toward my Early Childhood
Endorsement. I earned my National Board Certification as a Middle Childhood
Generalist in 1998. My husband and I are the lucky parents of two children,
Anna and Garrett. They surprise us each day with both how rewarding and
challenging parenting can be. Like Mrs. Baughman, my husband and I enjoy
traveling a great deal. Thanks to an overseas assignment for my husband’s
work, we gave birth to our daughter in London. As a baby and toddler, she
accompanied us while we explored Europe. I look forward to bringing my
teaching experience, personal adventures and parenting perspective to Addams
as we work together to create a challenging and caring environment where ALL
of our children thrive. My email address is nageal01@southredford.net.
Teachers': We believe that every child has the potential to learn. As a
facilitator of information, it is our job to find that potential inside
every child. The teacher, parents, staff of the school, and the student are
all a part of a student's education. We must work together to bring out the
best in all children and help them reach their full potential, teaching them
that learning is a life long process. We plan to use this mission to bring
out the best in your child every day.
Class': to be determined by the 09-10 students
