Brenda Benoit
Ms. Benoit started this amazing journey of teaching at VB in 2006. She moved to USA from Chile in 2001. She loves the beach, camping, paddle boarding and spending time with friends and family. She also has a funny puppy who keeps her company named Bella. I love teaching because by doing what you love, you inspire and awaken the hearts of others.

Megan Perotti
In 2017, I started teaching as a long term sub and found a permanent position the next year. After spending some time in both middle school and developmental preschool, I started teaching in the Resource Room at Van Buren in 2021. I love forming relationships with my students and their families. In 2020, I married my best friend and fellow Special Education Teacher who works at Washington Elementary. (Yes, we met on the job!) In the winter, you can find us on the slopes every chance we get. We spend the summers traveling and recently took a cross-country road trip!

Lisa Loosle
School Psychologist
I have been working in the wonderful world of education since 2010. You might catch me horseback riding, paddleboard, trying new food or reading in my free time. I believe that every student brings their own unique talents and interests to the learning community and I hope to make a positive impact on individuals and our community as a whole.
