Hello! My name is Taylor Weiss and I will be teaching 2nd grade this year here at Beckemeyer Elementary. I completed my education through Kaskaskia College and Greenville University, where I graduated with a degree in Elementary and Special Education. I am looking forward to creating a classroom environment where students feel like we are a family. My goal is for students to learn and grow throughout the year educationally while exhibiting exceptional character traits. Outside the classroom, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends. I also have a special love for horses, including my mare Jojo whom I love to go trail riding. I also enjoy owning my own t-shirt business. I have two dogs, Hattie and Hayes, who are the greatest joys. I look forward to a great school year!
