All+About+Mrs.+Figi

Thank you for sharing your child with me! This is one of the most exciting experiences for your child and I look forward in working with you in developing their skills and make their learning fun.

A little bit about me....I am the youngest of 7 children (4 sisters and 2 brothers!). I graduated from Wauzeka Public Schools (near Prairie du Chien) in 1995. I went on to further my education at UW-Platteville. At UW-Platteville I obtained my Bachelor of Science Degree in Elementary Education (PK-6) with a Special Education Inclusion Minor in May 2000. In June 2000, I taught Summer School at Black Hawk Elementary School and a teaching position at Black Hawk came open due to the Early Childhood Teacher leaving. I began teaching in the Fall 2000 as the Early Childhood Special Education Teacher and completed my Special Education certification through UW-Whitewater. In the Fall of 2008 I began my Master of Science in Education degree and Reading Certification at UW-Stout in which I have officially finished in August of 2010! I believe teaching is a lifelong learning process. I am glad to be done with the courses in my educational career at this point....and look forward to put what I have learned to use. I also know my best "educators" are those that I am working with, the students, as they have taught me so much over the last twelve years; not only about how to teach but loving to teach! Each child is unique and offers so many great talents. I am very honored to be teaching in such a great School District that offers such great things.

I am married to Jason Figi and we have four children who attend Black Hawk Schools; Nathan (9), Andrew (8), Emily (5), and Bradley (1). We enjoy attending community events, time with family, and spending time outside. I look forward to learning more about each of you in the upcoming school year!
