My name is Sisie Puntil-Wilcek and I have been teaching for 42 years, primarily in special ed.  I have taught at all grade levels from early childhood through high school. My first 20 years, I was a teacher of the deaf/ hearing impaired and moved to special education at a suburb in the Chicagoland area.  I retired from teaching in the suburbs after 36 years of teaching and for the last 7 years have been teaching at a Virtual School in the city of Chicago.  I have been married for 41 years, have 3 grown children:  2 boys in tech and 1 girl, who works with me at my school and happens to be my boss.  My hobbies are sewing, reading and golf.  I love to travel however with the job I have now it's been very difficult to get time off.  I am looking forward to working with all of you.
