Richard Weiland

Over the past 16 years you might have seen Richard Weiland riding his bike to school in snow, rain, and sunshine, but next year that will change.
After 42 years of teaching, the last 16 at ETHS, reading specialist teacher Richard Weiland is hanging up his boots and retiring from teaching.
“I will miss the students most of all, it’s a privilege to teach them,” said Weiland. “I got to see students grow and mature and have a real influence on their lives and that is a great gift.”
Weiland started at ETHS in 2000 and in his tenure he has taught English, US History, and Freshman Humanities. During the summer Weiland will continue to be the camp director of GoodSports! a sports camp he founded, that promotes a healthy lifestyle.
