Ms. Ashley Mertz

I love being the STEAM teacher at BSH! I have been teaching since 2012 with experiences in both Catholic and public schools with students in elementary through middle grades. I am originally from New Jersey where I began my teaching career and moved to Virginia in 2018. My goal is to help students take thoughtful risks, engage in experiential learning, persist in problem-solving, embrace collaboration, and work through the creative process. In addition to teaching my early learner through middle school classes, I also offer after school STEAM events.

With technology, we can achieve the unimaginable!
