Hi! My name is Mrs. Bethany Stiefel, and I will have the pleasure of serving as your child’s teacher this year. This is my fifth year in education and at Calhoun Elementary School, and my third year serving as a special education teacher. I am a product of the University of West Georgia where I graduated with a degree in early childhood education. Upon completing my initial degree and being hired at Calhoun Elementary School I pursued my Master’s degree in education, followed by my Specialist’s degree in media and instructional technology both from the University of West Georgia. I am married to my wonderful husband, Brooklyn and we recently welcomed our first child, a daughter named Addie James. I enjoy photography and spending time family and friends. I am excited about the upcoming school year and look forward to becoming a partner in your child’s education.
