Hello! My name is Erica Meendering. I am excited to begin my ninth year teaching at HMS Middle School! Although I grew up in Spencer, my parents both graduated from HMS! I am an avid reader who loves traveling and spending time outside.
I graduated from the University of Northern Iowa with a B.A. in Elementary Education and endorsements in Mathematics (K-8), Reading (K-8), and Language Arts (K-8). I have my M.A. in Elementary Education from Morningside College. Not only am I one of the fifth-grade advisors, but I will also continue teaching math to all fifth and sixth graders this year. One section of seventh graders will also have me as their math teacher. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions or concerns. I've shared my contact information below. It's going to be a great school year!
