Hi!  My name is Tara Hansen.  I have been teaching in the Mauston School District for eighteen years.  I am originally from Reedsburg, Wisconsin.  I attended UW Eau Claire and received my degree in Elementary Education 1-8 with a minor in Social Studies 1-9 in 1997.  I received my first teaching assignment at West Side Elementary in Mauston in the fall of 1997.   In 2003, I received my Master's Degree in Education from Viterbo University.

I am married to Bryan Hansen, a second grade teacher at West Side Elementary.  We have two daughters, Reese and Peyton.  Both are students in the Mauston School District.

In my free time, I enjoy scrapbooking, singing, and crocheting!!!  You can also see my family at numerous Mauston sporting events.  Go Mauston Eagles!!!
