Mr. Abenth
Greetings, Highland Park Elementary Families!
My name is Steve Abenth and I am very excited about another year of teaching KINDERGARTEN here at Highland Park Elementary School!
I grew up in Saginaw, Michigan, where I spent countless hours playing football, basketball, baseball and softball with my friends and 3 older brothers and trying not to drive my parents crazy. As I got older, I developed a passion for woodworking and music. I love to woodcarve (though there never seems to be enough time...or band aids), though, music is the thing that seems to be woven into everything I do.
My wife, Jill, and I have been married for 22 years and we have two children.
I earned my bachelors of education degree from Augsburg College in Minneapolis, MN. This is my 20th year teaching at Highland Park Elementary School (I even did my student teaching here at HPE!). I taught ten years in 4th grade and I am now about to start my tenth year as a kindergarten teacher. I absolutely love it!
I am ready for another wonderful year here at Highland Park Elementary and look forward to working with you and your family!
