Hi! My name is Rose Ferrall. I've been a part of the Brookfield team for 22 years. I chose
Brookfield School because I believe in their philosophy and respect for each child. Prior to coming to
Brookfield School, I worked as a teacher's aide at Garfield Elementary School in the Bay Area. I was
a girl scout leader, campfire girl leader as well as various positions in the PTA including Vice President.
As a Pre-K teacher, my goal is to make learning fun! Teachers need to be happy, fun and somewhat
animated. Children also need to feel comfortable and safe in their environment. Building self esteem
has always been a major part of my teaching, someday these children will grow up to be leaders in
our communities. I also feel that as a teacher it's important to always model good behavior.
I have a fantastic husband Steve, of 34 years, two wonderful daughters; Melinda and Naomi both have
graduated from the University of Nevada Reno. I also have two beautiful grandchildren, Dylan 3 and
Avery 1. We also have two precious dogs, Ozzie and Shug.
My interest are exercising, gardening, camping, vacationing to Canada and spending quality time with good friends and family.
I've truly enjoyed the many years I've worked for Brookfield School. |

My name is Terri Staats and I'm very excited to be joining the staff at Brookfield School. I have had the pleasure of working with middle school, high school, and severely handicapped children for fifteen years while working for the Washoe County School District. This past year I taught four year old pre school children and what a fun and memorable time that was.
Over the years some of my personal accomplishments have been getting married, raising our three children, running three marathons, finishing several sprint triathlons, and swimming the length of Donnor Lake. In my spare time I love to read, sew, bead, run, hike, bike, swim, fish, and play with my three dogs. I am looking forward to meeting all of the parents in my classroom and getting the new year started with your children. |

Hi, I'm Arlene Lillegard. It's a joy to return to Brookfield after ten years. My total teaching experience is 17 years at private schools. This includes 7 years in kindergarten, 2 of which were here. The other years were multi-grade schools or classrooms. With kindergarten students, I thrill in the progress and delight of learning.
I earned a BA in Education in Southern Cal where I was born and raised. After our 3 daughters were born there, Gary and I followed my parents to Reno. Their roots run so deep that a lane in Yerrington is named after my grandfather Luzier. Now with two college graduate daughters living in Reno and one daughter in WA, I'm excited to focus again on the jaunt through Pre-K. |
