About Ms. Gieber:

Hello West Wing Staff and Families! I’m Ms. Gieber, and I am so excited to have the opportunity to work with you this year! Things may be a little crazy, now and then, as we navigate through the school year raising amazing young citizens together, but I look forward to taking on any challenges that come our way as a team! As Maya Angelou once said, “Do the best you can until you know better, then when you know better, do better.”

As for my background, I was raised in Colorado, but I have lived in Arizona most of my life. I earned my Bachelor of Education degree from Ottawa University, a Master’s Degree from Northern Arizona University, and I have been teaching for 29 years. I am certified as a gifted specialist, reading specialist, and I hold an SEI endorsement to support second language learners. I have worked with students of varying ability levels, needs, and backgrounds, from Kindergarten through 6th grade, and I have been extremely blessed to grow through my experiences with each child and family I have encountered.

I am blessed with an amazing family of humans and furry buddies, all of whom I love to the moon and back! My daughter Amanda, 28, recently blessed me with my first grandchild, a beautiful little girl named Charly Ray, and my son Connor, 20, is making me so proud as he protects and serves as a police aide in our lovely state of AZ.  I also have two completely goofy but sweet dogs, Penni and Crusoe, who keep me on my toes and laughing constantly!

I enjoy walking, hiking, and reading to calm my brain, and I love to get into shenanigans making soap, building or repurposing household items, painting, home repair, and just hanging out for giggles with my crazy family and friends.

I look forward to hearing about the amazing and fun students, new staff, and families of West Wing School, and I thank you all in advance for allowing me to be a part of the Mustang Herd!
