Hello, my name is Carson Weichers and I will be the new 6th grade/HS band director! In addition to that, I will also be teaching 5-8 computer science! In December of 2025 I received my degree in music education from Luther College up in Decorah. This will be my first official year of teaching and I am very excited to start! As a music teacher, music is a big part of my life, so I spend a lot of time immersed in that world--both in and out of school. Beyond that, I also enjoy reading, stargazing, and spending time with friends. To get to know me just a little bit more, here is a list of some of my favorites:
- Color: Green
- Season: Fall
- Holiday: Christmas
- Food: Sushi
- Sport : Swimming
- Song (current): "If It Wasn't For The Nights" by ABBA
- Book: A Wrinkle in Time
- Movie: Mamma Mia

Hello AGWSR! My name is Mrs. Maitland and I am your new 9-12 school counselor for the 26-27 school year. This will be my seventh year working in education as a school counselor. I have my bachelors in child, adult, & family services from Iowa State (GO STATE!) and my masters in school counseling from the University of Northern Iowa. Outside of school I enjoy spending time with my husband and our four boys, spending time on the river, working in my garden, and just spending as much time outside as possible. I'm looking forward to working in the district this year and making student connections. Please reach out if there is anything I can help you with - Go Cougars!
