Hello, my name is Holly Hase and I am wrapping up my 4th year teaching Special Education at Benton. My husband and I live in Van Horne with our four amazing children. If I have spare time you will find me curled up with a book but you’re more likely to find me coaching or cheering on my babes at their activities.
