Trish Terada

Hello! My name is Trisha Terada, and I am in my 9th year of teaching after taking 11 years off to raise my two boys, Kasen (5th) and Jaden (1st). I am so glad to be back in the classroom! I currently live on some acres in western Shawnee with my husband, Kaz and our boys. Kaz and I met in Arizona and have been married for 15 years. I received my Bachelor’s in Elementary Education while playing competitive volleyball at Bethel College. A few years later, I attended University of Phoenix and received my Masters in Curriculum and Instruction.  My family and I enjoy cooking together, training in the art of Brazilian Jiu-jitsu, rooting for the Chiefs, doing everything outside, and taking care of all of our animals - chickens, fish, a snake, and 2 dogs!

Jill Roush

Hi!  My name is Jill Roush and I am in my 16th year of teaching.  I have taught fourth and fifth grade.  I grew up in Wisconsin and Iowa, then moved to Kansas City after I graduated from Iowa State University.  My first degree was in Marketing, but later went to Ottawa University to earn my teaching certificate.  I have always lived in the DeSoto school district with my husband Gary and three kids:  Lindsay-26, Jack-23, and Ryan 21.  In my free time, I love to travel (National Parks are my favorite), spend time at the lake, explore Kansas City, watch sports, read, and DIY house projects.
