Meet Fairview’s Mr. Michael Obilade

 

​Michael Obilade is a teacher at Fairview Early Childhood Center. He teaches his students Spanish, English and Italian. Mr. Mike teaches his students to play the piano, ukulele, guitar and several other instruments. Each day, the class begins by looking at a painting by a master artist on the SMART Board and students discuss their observations. They learn where in the world the artist is from and discuss art concepts. 

Mr. Mike is in his fifth year of teaching in RPS 205. Mike's wife, Brenda, is a school psychologist at Froberg Elementary School. Thank you for providing these engaging and higher level learning opportunities for our students Mr. Mike!
