Bergman, Heather

Welcome to Mrs. Bergman's Classroom

Meet the Teacher

Welcome to the 2023-2024 school year!! This is my 16th year in education and my 8th year at Tri-Village Local Schools! I am a 2000 graduate of Ansonia Local Schools, 2004 graduate of Wright State University, and a 2009 graduate of Bowling Green University. My passion is empowering students to become lifelong learners and problem-solvers! I love a good challenge and finding a creative solution when needed. Before my students leave my classroom, I am hoping they have learned how to face challenges with perseverance and a determination to get back up and try again!

Gifted Education Mission Statement:

"Our mission at Tri-Village Local Schools is to provide a safe environment where students are encouraged to become critical thinkers, creative thinkers, high academic achievers, leaders, and lifelong learners to maximize their potential. We recognize the social/emotional needs of our students. Every gifted student has unique qualities, talents, interests, and abilities that differ from their peers. It is our mission to inspire and educate our gifted students for excellence in a global society."

Elementary and Junior High Spelling Bee is scheduled for Thursday, November 16th!

I will be attending the OAGC (Ohio Association of Gifted Children Conference) on Monday, October 16th and Tuesday, October 17th! Your child will have a sub for these two days.
