Hello and Welcome to Mrs. Ludwig's Science and Social Studies class. I am so excited to be your child's teacher this year. This will be my third year at Howard Norman Elementary School teaching 5th grade. As the year goes by I enjoy seeing the excitment in the kids' eyes as we explore the wonderful world of science and social studies. 

I graduated from California Coast University with a BS in Psychology. I received my EC-6 teacher certification from iTeach Texas. Before receiving my degree I was a SPED Instructional Assistant for 2 years and a P.E. Instructional Assisstant for 10 years in Leander. It was during those years that I realized that I wanted to have my own classroom. 

I have been married to my high school sweetheart Mark for 25 years and together we live on a 13 acre pecan farm. I have two children, my daughter MaKenna is 23 years old and just received her degree in education from TXST University. She will be teaching first grade in Luling. My son Mason is 20 years old and is pursing a degree in Construction Management from ACC all while running his own lawn business. I also have one dog Dixie Ann who is 6 years old. The kids will hear me talk about all 3 of them often as they bring me so much joy.
