Hello and welcome to third grade! My name is Ms. Holzheimer and I am so excited to be your child's teacher this school year! Third grade is my favorite and we have a lot of exciting things to learn this year!
I moved to Charlotte this year from Mentor, Ohio. This past summer I was given the opportunity to move to Charlotte to work here and I had to take it. Honestly, I was sick of the ten feet of snow every winter. I played college basketball. I have coached many different sports in the past as well. I have coached high school lacrosse, basketball, and volleyball. I am certified as an official referee and in Ohio I spent my weekends on the basketball courts. One of my passions is traveling. I love seeing new things and learning about different cultures. I enjoy hiking and being with my family. One thing that you should know about me is I am deaf in my left ear. I have been learning sign language for five years and I use it in my classroom as often as I can.
I graduated from Kent State University.I graduated Magna Cum Laude with a degree in Elementary Education (PreK-3rd) and I graduated with my 4/5 Endorsement as well. Also, I am certified as a IB educator. This is my first year teaching third grade at River Gate and I am so fortunate to be teaching in such a wonderful community! I am excited for an amazing successful year!
