My name is Andrea Mayer and I'm very excited to welcome your child to Columbia Elementary School and the Transitional Program. This is my third year both in Alabama and Columbia, however, I'm not new to the south. As a native Tennessean, we are a house divided as my husband is a UT graduate and I am a avid Roll Tide fan!!!  I have 2 children, my daughter is a recent college graduate who is out in the real world working !!! My son is a Theater Techie and Photograher  in Colorado. This is my 30 th year teaching special education and I have a variety of teaching experiences from pre school to the secondary level. I'm very excited to be a part of the CES family and to work with you and your child.
