    Greetings!  My name is Rebecca Schendel and I teach the Honeybee class at Russell Elementary School.  I am beginning my 24th year of teaching Kindergarten and I couldn't think of a more exciting place to be!  I was born and raised in Montana and have lived in Missoula for over 25 years!  I have two children ages 15 and 19,  one dogs, a snake, a spider, lots of fish, and  6 chickens!  I love to run, bike, and paddle board, read, grow flowers and food in my garden, and make music and listen to music! I can play 6 different musical instruments and know American Sign Language.  I am currently completing my master's degree in Integrated Fine Arts from UM and can't wait to sing, play, build, and create with your child!   Russell Elementary is my neighborhood school and I love that I get to work with families in my neighborhood!  I am proud to be a Russell Teacher and a former Russell Parent.
