My name is Amy Welch and this will be my third year as a Special Education Teacher at Anthem School.  I taught special education and 3rd grade for 10 years at Balsz Elementary School in Phoenix.  For six years, I trained special education staff across the state of Arizona on how to use an online software program for writing special education documents.   I am thrilled to be back at Anthem School working with your children! I have been married for seventeen years to my husband, Ted.  We have two children.  Emmy will be a freshman at Boulder Creek High School and TJ will be starting 7th grade at Sunset Ridge.  They both keep me busy with their various activities and sports. We also have two dogs (Winni and Mickey) and two bunnies (Hocus Pocus and Geisha).  I look forward to getting to know each of my students and their families!
