Lourdes Academy in Oshkosh mourns death of former teacher

ALLOUEZ — Members of the Lourdes Academy community in Oshkosh mourned the passing of Andrew Schefelker, 30, who died Feb. 24 in the 131-vehicle crash on Interstate 41 in Neenah. Schefelker served as a long-term substitute teacher at Lourdes Academy last year, teaching middle school science and high school math.

“Andrew came into our school very enthusiastic and ready to learn as a teacher,” David Mikesell, principal of Lourdes Academy, told The Compass in an email. “He connected with our students and did a good job building relationships with him. He gave the school, and more importantly the students, 100 percent of what he could day in and day out.”
