Scottsdale Prep New Faculty Spotlight
Scottsdale Prep welcomes new history teacher, Mr. Donald Weber. 
Mr. Weber graduated Cum Laude with a Bachelors of Arts in Classical History and Art/Museum Studies from Valparaiso University in Indiana.
Outside of the university setting, he worked as a professional ice sculptor in the winters and as a jousting knight at Medieval Times, a restaurant/live theater company which will soon open a location here in Phoenix. In addition to studying classical history, Mr. Weber enjoys fencing, interior design, and writing poetry. He has always had a passion for all things ancient and medieval, and he looks forward to sharing that passion and enthusiasm with students this coming school year!
