Jessica Sadler has taught third, fifth, and sixth grades in Lawrence and Olathe Kansas, holding bachelor’s and master’s degrees in education and special education. A STEAM facilitator with an ESL endorsement, Jessica has won numerous teaching awards, including being named a Kansas Asia Scholar. She has served as a volleyball coach and was nominated as Kansas Teacher of the Year in 2019-20. What her awards do not highlight is the fact that Jessica is an avid and enthusiastic reader looking forward to discussing Neither Wolf Nor Dog with her friend Freddy Gipp, co-leader for a work articulating the world view and life lessons bequeathed by an Indian elder.
