Hello, my name is Matthew Reitzel. I am an alumnus of All Saints, as well as the Xavier Catholic School System. This is my third year teaching at All Saints. I graduated from Iowa State University with a degree in Elementary Education and am currently pursuing a Masters degree at the University of Iowa for Teaching, Leadership, and Cultural Competencies with a focus in STEM education. I am currently serving in the Iowa Army National Guard with the 186th Military Police Company as a commissioned officer, assigned with being a platoon leader.
It is truly a calling of mine to teach in a Catholic school, and especially at my elementary alma mater. I am so blessed to be able to help students grow in their faith and learn to become closer to God. With the supportive and welcoming community that is All Saints Elementary, every student is able to grow tremendously and achieve their full academic potential.
