Mrs. Julia
Olson, new to Messmer High this year, teaches U.S. History, Psychology, and
Leadership. She has been a
substitute teacher for 5 years, including filling in for Mr. Price last year
when he welcomed his new child. She taught middle school in Nashville,
Tennessee and has substituted in recent years in Shorewood and Whitefish Bay.
Mrs.
Olson said, “I enjoy working with high school students, and I find the subjects
fascinating. Also, after being a substitute, I am enjoying the opportunity to
build relationships with students.” Ms. Olson went to college in Ohio studying
History, and then added an Education major. Her favorite classes in college were
History, Geography and German Literature.
Mrs. Olson has
three children: a daughter in college, and a son and daughter in high school. She
hardly has free time between school and her children, but when she does, she
loves sharing it with family and friends. She also likes to sew and bake. Mrs.
Olson is filled with history, and a love for the students of Messmer. Get to know this wonderful new teacher!
