Mrs. Christy Moellering
2025-2026 Teacher of the Year
Moellering

 

Christy Moellering, mathematics teacher, has been selected as the 2025–2026 Teacher of the Year by her Parkway West High School colleagues. Mrs. Moellering currently teaches AP Calculus AB and Algebra 1. She has taught at West for 11 years, in addition to 13 years at Lindbergh High School. A graduate of Parkway South, Mrs. Moellering is proud to return to the Parkway community as an educator and values the opportunity to give back to the district that shaped her own academic journey.

Mrs. Moellering attended Southwest Missouri State University (now Missouri State University). After two years she transferred to Washington University where she earned a degree in Business Administration with a second major in mathematics. After a brief stint in the business world, she realized her true passion was teaching. She returned to the classroom through UMSL and earned her Secondary Mathematics Certification and a Master’s degree in Secondary Education. She also earned her National Board Certification in 2009.

     
Mrs. Moellering enjoys supporting freshmen in Algebra 1 as they adjust to the expectations of high school mathematics. She strives to create a welcoming classroom environment where students feel confident asking questions, taking risks, and building strong foundations. In AP Calculus, she challenges students through critical thinking, clear communication, and deep conceptual understanding. She especially enjoys celebrating seniors as they discuss their post high school plans and prepare for their next chapters.

Outside the classroom, Mrs. Moellering enjoys binge watching shows with her husband, family game nights, and traveling to volleyball tournaments. As the mom of two high schoolers, Matthew, a senior, and Gillian, a sophomore, she’s deep in the world of high school milestones, extracurricular activities, and college planning. She brings this perspective into the classroom as both a teacher and a parent, strengthening her connection to students and families and reinforcing her dedication to supporting the whole child.
