Mrs. Gerber
Welcome to Life Skills! I'm excited that you are here.
This is my second year teaching in Stewartville Middle School. I previously taught agriculture in Harker Heights, TX. I'm originally from Rochester, and am very happy to be back in the Midwest!
My husband and I enjoy hiking and travelling with our daughter, Nora, and our dog, Wesley.
In Life Skills, we will cover a variety of topics including agriculture, business/finance, FACS, and leadership. We do many hands on projects and activities.
