Each week, we're featuring a staff member to help you get to know the amazing people who make De Soto school district such a special place.
This week is Meg Buchner, our Elementary Art Teacher. She is also the district TAG (talented and gifted) coordinator. She facilitate events with the Mississippi Valley Gifted and Talented Network, run/coordinate the Middle School Visual Arts Festival and teach six TAG classes a week.
🏴☠️ This is Ms Buchner's 10th year at De Soto and 18th year teaching.
🏴☠️ She is originally from La Crosse. She graduated from Viterbo University. She has three kids who all graduated from De Soto. Her daughter Lane is a third year medical student currently doing clinical rotations in New Jersey. Her son Vin recently graduated from Luther College and works on the AI team at Fastenal in Winona as a computer programer. Her son Silas graduated from De Soto last year and is a freshman at Winona State majoring in composite engineering.
🏴☠️She loves to be outside and kayak, hike and bike! She hasn't always been an art teacher. She used to work at an advertising agency and ran her own marketing/design business for many years.
🏴☠️When asked what excites her most about De Soto Meg says, "I love the supportive community of De Soto! I have received so many kind and wonderful donations over the years."

The Tech Ed. Department and Construction class would like to thank everyone for the interest and support of the tree project. What started as just a few tree sets turned into 22 sets of trees. To say the kids were busy is an understatement! Thankfully there was a lot of teamwork and critical thinking displayed to keep the trees "growing." We would also like to thank La Crosse Area Builders Association (LABA) for their Tools for Schools program. Most of the tools used on this project have been received through this program in recent years. Our community continues to support us and we appreciate it, thank you!
