About the Proctors

Melissa Westover


My name is Melissa Westover. I am an adjunct Social Studies at Primavera and have taught at Primavera since 2008. I live in Flagstaff, AZ and love living where I can enjoy all of the seasons, even though I am not a big fan of the cold! I love working with students at Primavera! AIMS testing provides me a very unique opportunity to meet students face to face. I find that, even though we are meeting for testing, we still have a great time chatting before and after the testing sessions. I look forward to meeting you this Spring!! Remember, AIMS is a time to show off all that you have learned, don't be nervous!!! Put your game face on and go for it!!! I know that with enough focus, determination and confidence, YOU can pass the AIMS with flying colors!!! Remember, the first step is showing up, the rest is a cake walk!!!!!

My name is Todd Ziehm. I am the Guidance Counselor at Primavera. I've been with Primavera for over a year now and really like what we do here!  I enjoy being outside hiking, running and swimming and anything else outdoors! This past summer I had the opportunity to hike the Humphrey's Peak Trail. Have any of you done this? It's a great experience! Flagstaff is a great town to travel to and a big change of pace from being in the valley. I especially enjoy AIMS testing because I get to meet all of you in person! Please know we are here to help and support you in preparation for your AIMS testing. We looking forward to  getting to know you over the next several weeks and look forward to meeting in person! Please email me if you have any questions and I will make sure to get them answered! 

Hello students and welcome! I am Meah Sessions your instructor. I will be assisting you with your success here at Primavera.

I have been a school counselor and a teacher for 8 years. I have taught students from Kindergarten to Seniors in High School.  I have my B.S. in Psychology and Political Science from San Diego State University. I then went on to get my Masters degree in Psychology.

I live in Williams and love it. I live on a ranch with my husband, Steve, and two boys, Cody (9 years old) and Troy (5 years old). We have 3 horses, 2 dogs, 2 cats, 4 ducks, a turtle and lots of fish! So as you can see  I am pretty busy keeping the ranch going and keeping up with my boys. For fun I love to go horseback riding with my son Cody. We explore the local mountains finding bones and cool forts. We have even got lost a few times. I am  also a school counselor part time at a small mountain school. I truly enjoying watching students grow through knowledge!

I do hope you learn and enjoy this class and I look forward to getting to know all about you! Never hesitate to contact me!
