Gary Johnson
Hello! I began teaching at Van Buren in 2021. I graduated in 2019 from Boise State University. I was born in California but have lived in Idaho since I was three years old. I currently live in Boise with my fiancée and our cat, Goob. When I'm not teaching, I enjoy cooking, playing board games, and spending time with friends and family.

Rachel Mahnke
Hi, I'm Mrs. Mahnke! I moved from Northern California to Idaho in 2021 to begin my first year teaching at Van Buren Elementary. Before moving to Idaho, I taught Kindergarten for a year. I did my student teaching in 3rd grade and I'm so happy to be back teaching my favorite grade! 3rd graders are the best! I got married to my high school sweetheart in October 2021 and we absolutely love living in Idaho. Most of my family moved to Idaho as well and I love spending time with them, especially with my sweet little niece and my 4 nephews. I also enjoy traveling, baking and watching movies.

Sherri Logan
I began teaching at Van Buren in 2018. I am married. We have one son named Jeremy and an adorable Shih tzu, Bandit. I also have a sweet grand-dog named Kali. Idaho has been my home for 20 years. I enjoy the four seasons here in Idaho. I love gardening and anything that takes me outdoors. What I love most about teaching is building relationships with kids and their families. It is a special gift to watch kids as they grow and develop in their learning. |
