John Weldele teaches Science. Growing up, Weldele thought that he wanted to work for an environmental protection agency. In high school, for all four years, he played the drums in the marching band. Weldele was a biology major who studied ecosystems and environmental science. He later went to a seminary school to study philosophy and theology. In his free time, he loves to be in the outdoors, ride his bike to and from school, visit national parks, hike, fish and play Massive Multiplayer Online (MMO) games on his computer.
