Urbandale will be a school district that brings learning to life for everyone.
Welcome to 2nd Grade!
My name is Erin Baedke and this is my 14th year! I have taught ELL, 3rd grade, and 2nd grade all in Urbandale. I graduated from Drake University where I received my bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education with endorsements in Reading and English as a Second Language. In 2016 I completed my master’s degree in Curriculum and Instruction with an Emphasis in Instructional Leadership!
Outside of teaching I enjoy reading, watching football (Go Vikings!), and being with my friends, family, husband, and my two boys.
I look forward to working with you and your child this school year. Feel free to e-mail or call at anytime!
Sincerely,
Mrs. Baedke (“bed-key”)
