Welcome to our second grade class, my name is Ms. Alison Bickel! This will be my 11th year teaching, and my fourth year at Meridian Elementary. I love being a Hawk! I graduated from University of Missouri - Columbia with a bachelors in Elementary Education and a Master's in Educational Technology. I've taught in three states - Missouri, North Carolina, and Illinois.
I have the privilege of having two children who have grown up as Meridian Hawks! My children are Alayna and Aubrey, two teenage girls. When not at school, I love cheering my girls on as they play sports and sing, watching movies, traveling, reading, and spending time with family and friends.
I am also the high school cheer coach! This is my second year coaching, and I love it! One of my favorite things is to see my students come to games to cheer on the Hawks and say hi while there!
I can't wait for an amazing year in second grade!
