Deedy Anderson started kindergarten in the Bronx, then spent grades 1-7 switching between the Bronx and Bethel. During 7th grade, Her family moved permanently to Bethel. She graduated from Whitcomb (Bethel) HS and then from Castleton in 1973 . During college, her family moved to South Royalton, for a few years,  before returning to Bethel. Later, after moving to Rochester, she began working for the Supervisory Union in 1987 when a friend suggested she come over from Dandelion Daycare,  and work for Title I.

Deedy started out tutoring in the small one and two room schoolhouses in Granville and Hancock, then was moved to Rochester elementary until the rules for Title I  changed. At this point, Deedy continued for a few years in SPED in Rochester, then Stockbridge,  Bethel and most recently arriving at SRHS and SR Elementary in the fall of 2021 where she is continuing as a paraprofessional. The best part of all this, she says, has been the wonderful friends along the way. danderson\@wrvsu.org.
