Teacher Bio

Hi! My name is Mr. Plantz and I am going to be your 5th-grade teacher this year! This is my first year teaching but I have been working in Laveen for the past 3 years, I started as an A.V.I.D tutor at Cheatham in 2016 eventually moving up to a Guest Teacher position in 2017. I transferred to Laveen Elementary and continued as a Guest Teacher until 2019.

I recently graduated from Arizona State University in May of 2020 with a Bachelor’s in Elementary Education.

I am so incredibly excited to be opening Laveen’s newest school Estrella Foothills Global Academy. Even with this year being really different than normal, I promise that we will make this year as magical and memorable for you.

If you ever have any questions please feel free to reach out!
