My name is Andrea Mayer and I'm very excited to welcome your child to Columbia Elementary School and the Transitional 1-2 class. This is my second 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 Filmmaker in Nashville.  This is my 29th 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.
