Third Grade
Mrs. Anderson
​
Hello Wranglers! My name is Mariah Anderson. The kids call me Ms. Anderson or Ms. A, and I’m quite thrilled to be your 3rd Grade Teacher this year! I have been teaching for 2 years and this will be my 3rd year at Watson Elementary. I have a B.A. in Educational Studies in Elementary Education. Aside from teaching, I enjoy spending time with my family, building legos, listening to music, going jeeping, camping under the stars, getting lost at Barnes & Noble, reading, and Starbucks. I’m looking forward to an OUT OF THIS WORLD school year and helping your kids reach for the stars.

It is a pleasure to be part of Fredric Watson Elementary School for the 2025-2026 school year. This marks my ninth year teaching in the district. Before becoming an educator, I worked in the hospitality industry, managing operations ranging from financial oversight to staffing.
I earned my undergraduate degree in Business Management with a major in Human Resources from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. I then pursued further education, obtaining a Master of Arts in Teaching Elementary Education and a TESOL endorsement from Sierra Nevada University. Additionally, I completed a Master of Education in Secondary Education with an emphasis in STEM at Grand Canyon University.
During my time with CCSD, I have had the honor of being part of several initiatives, including the Mathematics Teacher Leader program, the Transformational Network's Train the Trainer program, the School Organizational Team, and serving as a Teacher Mentor.
I am passionate about learning and am committed to sharing my knowledge and experience with our students and the future leaders of our country.
