Welcome, Gabe Meyer
Gabe Meyer
Lutheran North
Math Teacher
We are so excited to welcome Mr. Gabe Meyer to the Lutheran North faculty as our new math teacher! Please join us in giving him a warm Mustang welcome as he begins this exciting journey with our school community!
Mr. Meyer was born in Texas, but grew up in West Michigan. After going to Hillsdale College, he moved back to Texas and worked for 4 years at Valor South Austin, and one year at Regents School of Austin. He met his lovely wife Haley in Texas, and they both moved back to Michigan to be closer to family. After teaching at Regents, Mr. Meyer was surprised by how refreshing it was teaching at a Christian school, and figured a Lutheran one would be even better! LHN came very highly recommended as his father teaches there, and his mother is an alumnus.
Please warmly welcome Gabe as a Mustang and get to know him through our Staff Spotlight 20 Questions below!
