Jenelle Basinger

Hello.  I am Jenelle Basinger, and am excited to start my second year as a special education teacher at Robinson! I was a special education paraprofessional at Robinson for six years before beginning teaching, and prior to my time at Robinson, served at Tillman and North Glendale for four years as a year-long substitute in paraprofessional positions.  This year will be my 12th year in Kirkwood School District! My undergraduate degree is in Social Work and I have a Masters degree in Teaching with an emphasis in Special Education. 

I enjoy cooking and eating spicy food, hiking with my husband and two college-age children (when they are home), and sewing.  I am also an avid walker and love exploring small, hole-in-the-wall restaurants in St. Louis.
