Hi, my name is Ellen Buhrow and I teach 3rd grade at Perkins Elementary. I have taught Title reading for three years, 1st grade for seventeen years, and this will be my fourth year in 3rd grade. I enjoy riding my bike, walking my dog, and spending time with my family and friends. I graduated with 2 degrees from Grand View College and then got my masters at Viterbo University. I love teaching and learning, and am looking forward to a great year ahead!

3rd Grade
My name is Mrs. Katie Dall-Winther, and I have taught for Des Moines Public Schools since August 2001. I graduated from the University of Northern Iowa with a double major in Elementary and Middle School. My endorsements were in reading and Middle School. I also received my Master’s Degree from Viterbo University with an emphasis in Literacy and Vocabulary instruction in 2005.
I have taught middle school Literacy for grades 6th- 8th grade. At Perkins, I have been a classroom teacher at the 4th and 5th grade levels, and currently teach 3rd grade. I enjoy spending my days with these young Perkins penguins as they become stronger readers, mathematicians, and friends to each other!
In my free time, I enjoy cheering on the Iowa Hawkeyes, gardening, and traveling with my husband and 3 children.
