Special Education Matthew Klingner

I want to take the time to introduce myself, my name is Matt Klingner and I’m in my second year teaching 9th grade Special Education at Southview. Some of the courses that I teach include: Focus Literature class, Co-Teaching English, and serving as an active participant in planning what we do for Flex time at Southview. This will be my 20th year in education and 18th as a special education teacher as I moved to Ankeny from Missouri. I am always excited to meet students in the district and help them on their individual paths. I also coach basketball at Centennial High School. In my free time I enjoy going back to the family farm, coaching/attending sporting events, and spending time with my family. One strong belief I have to help students be successful is teamwork and communication. In my classroom I strive to be an educator who understand each student and make those meaningful connections to assist the student take ownership in their own learning.
