Second Grade
Welcome to 2nd grade! We are so excited to have your child in our classes this year! 2nd grade has so many fun filled events. The kids really get to dive into different communities, habitats, pollination and pollinators this year! We can't wait to see how much your child will grow this year!

I have been teaching in Douglas County for over 20 years, and I feel so grateful to spend my career in such a wonderful community. I am married to my husband, Mike, and together we have three children—our son, Caleb, and identical twin daughters, Addison and Brooke—all of whom are currently in college. Addison plays college volleyball, and Brooke competes in both college volleyball and tennis, so much of my free time is happily spent cheering them on.
Outside of school, I am a big sports fan and especially enjoy watching volleyball, tennis, and football. I also love reading, gardening, going on walks, and relaxing on my patio. Teaching is my passion, and I truly enjoy learning and growing alongside my students every day. I am excited for the year ahead and all of the learning, laughter, and growth it will bring!

Yvette Wieter
My name is Yvette Wieter and I am thrilled to be your child’s second grade teacher at Soaring Hawk Elementary. I am excited to help your child grow academically and personally. I have been a teacher for over fifteen years. I have taught many grades (first, second, and fourth) and I have substituted in kindergarten through eighth grade. I have an Elementary Education degree with middle school endorsements in Biological Science, Social Science, and Language Arts. My family and I moved here several years ago from Illinois. (Yes, we are Chicago fans!) I have three children and two dogs (both are Boxers). In my spare time, I like to spend time with my family and dogs, hike, read, bake, play pickleball, and play games.
