That was Katherine Weaver talking, a third-generation educator. Her grandfather taught high school physics and math, and her mother taught education at a university, where Mrs. Weaver worked for her mom in the Dean’s office. She graduated from Centerville High School and went to the University of Dayton (UD) as a Business Major but soon changed to Education. At UD, she met her husband-to-be, and after graduating (and getting married), she moved on to Ohio State to study music.
