As you may know, my name is Abby Weitzel, and I am currently entering into my fourth year of teaching. I have fallen in love with Fairview since I completed my student teaching there during the 2016-2017 school year in first grade with Mrs. Becky Armbruster. Since then, I graduated from the University of Cincinnati with a bachelors degree in Early Childhood Education and a psychology minor. Last year, I completed my masters in 2019 for Education and Technology. Since then, I have started working on my PhD at the end of the 2018-2019 school year.
I was hired on as part of the Fairview family after leaving UC where I taught kindergarten for the 2016-2017 school year, jumped to first grade for the 2017-2018 school year, which has led me to where we are now, where I have fallen in love with teaching first grade!
To know a little bit about me, on the side I decorate cakes and cookies for different functions as a hobby. I have done many and it has not gotten old yet! I also love going to the beach. I have traveled to North Carolina every year for as long as I can remember with my family. I am close with my family, since it is just my parents along with one older sister who is a nurse in Columbus, OH. I come from a very small town called Coldwater, Ohio where my parents still reside. I played percussion for 8 years while in school and have been playing the piano since kindergarten! At the University of Cincinnati I was a member of Kappa Delta sorority, where I continued my passion for helping others with taking on many leadership roles gearing towards community service.
In the classroom I will be incorporating technology as well as a variety of manipulates to help in our learning and growing.
As always, if you have any questions or need anything, please let me know!
Lets work together for a great year!
Miss Weitzel
