Ms. Anita Buxbaum
1st Grade TeacherBiography
Hello! My name is Anita Buxbaum, and I am excited to join the St. Matthias Staff!! I was born and raised in Milwaukee. I received a Bachelor of Arts Degree from Marquette University, and I received my Teaching Certification from Mount Mary University. I am beginning my 27th year of teaching. In those years, I have taught K3, K4, K5, and most recently 2nd grade at Wauwatosa Catholic School.
My certification goes through 8th grade, but I have a true passion for working with the littles! Helping each child progress in all areas of their development – academic, social, motor, language, and spiritual – is a challenge that I am honored to accept daily. I strive to create a community of learners that nurtures this growth in a positive, fun environment. I want to instill a love of learning in my faith filled classroom.
Personally, I love to spend time with family and friends. I have two grown children with whom I am very close. My son recently moved to Connecticut. Thank goodness for technology and FaceTime! My daughter and her husband live in Oak Creek. My children, siblings, and nieces/nephews love family gatherings, hiking, traveling, and attending Brewers Games.
I look forward to working together with you as partners in your child’s growth and development!
