Hello, I'm Mr. Addington.
This is my third year at Cannon Falls Elementary School teaching art. I am in my 20th year teaching and have covered just about all levels and classes in the K-12 art world. I spent the first 12 years of my career teaching HS art, photography, video production and graphic design. I have transitioned with enthusiasm into the elementary world the past few years!
I graduated from Rochester John Marshall HS and did my undergraduate studies at Augustana College in Sioux Falls, SD. I have taught and coached at Kenyon-Wanamingo, Rochester Century, Albert Lea, and Lakeville South and somewhere along the way got my Masters Degree from Winona State University.
In my free time (if there is such a thing) I enjoy spending time with my family. My wife Leah and I live outside of Cannon Falls in Sogn Valley with our three kids; Cameron (4th grade), Emerson (2nd grade) and Keaton (preschool). I love to bowhunt and spend a lot of time in the woods checking trail cameras, growing food plots and photographing wildlife. I also really enjoy working on the farm, hunting Morel mushrooms, making maple syrup, fishing, playing guitar and playing cards with friends. In my "other life" I am a professional photographer and have been blessed to travel around the globe capturing images for clients in a variety of cool places. I get a lot of my news, information and updates via Twitter and occasionally post some of the goofy things that happen in our classroom.
I hope you enjoy looking around the website for all the latest goings on here in the art room at Cannon Falls Elementary.
