Dear Parents:
I welcome you and your child, to 5th grade! My name is David Waldecker and it is my third year teaching at Hope of Detroit Academy, my first teaching fifth grade. A little bit about me...
I graduated from Wayne State University with a Bachelor of Science in Education. I am currently enrolled at the University of Michigan-Dearborn for my Master of Arts in Education. Before I was a teacher, I was a combat journalist in the United States Navy where I did tours in San Diego, Italy, and Djibouti, Africa.
I have a four-year-old son named Wyatt and I'm getting married in November! I love going to baseball games and camping in the summer.
