Hello, Swallow Parents and Students! My name is Becky Christian and I have the pleasure of teaching 5th grade this year at Swallow School.
I graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater in 2008 with a Bachelors of Science in Education (1-8) and a minor in Spanish. My first teaching position brought me to Swallow School, where I taught 2nd, 3rd, 5th, and 6th grades before being a stay-at-home mom. After being home with my daughters, I looked forward to getting back into teaching to continue my passion. I am beginning my 13th year of teaching this year! I am currently finishing my Masters in Teaching and Learning from Capella University with aspirations to extend my degree into Curriculum and Instruction. Being a lifelong learner has always been my belief!
In my time away from school, I love spending quality time with my family. We love spending time outdoors, playing games, reading, fishing, and cooking.
I am looking forward to starting this new year at Swallow School, getting to know your child, and making happy memories together. Let's have a positive and successful year, and I can't wait to meet you all soon!

Welcome to fifth grade! I’ve been teaching since 1994. I began my career as an elementary Spanish teacher. I was hired at Swallow School in 2000, where I taught third grade for 17 years and then switched to fifth grade in 2017. I graduated from UW-Whitewater in 1994 with a major in Elementary Education, grades 1-9, and a Spanish minor. In 2002, I earned my Master's Degree in Reading from UW-Whitewater. I have since taken courses through Viterbo University, and I earned my Reading Specialist license in 2013. I consider myself a life-long learner and truly value the opportunity for everyone to be inspired to learn.
I enjoy spending my free time reading and relaxing at home, hanging out with my family, going for walks, and watching movies. I'm confident that you will agree; Swallow School is a great place to be!
