¡Bienvenidos! My name is Brandi Rettick and I have been the Spanish teacher at Fillmore Central since Fall 2016. I have many exciting learning adventures planned for the students of Fillmore Central this year and am looking forward to continuing to meet everyone in the community.

I earned my Bachelors of Science in Teaching Spanish from Winona State University in 2014. While I was completing my degree, I was fortunate enough to study abroad in Spain, take a 2-week women’s study course in Ecuador and speak at two teaching conferences; the state-level Minnesota Council on the Teaching of Languages and Culture and the national-level American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages.

After graduation, I taught Spanish as a long-term substitute at United South Central High School, Medford High School, and Farmington High School. Between these long-term substitute positions, I was also a day-to-day substitute for many other school districts.
