Hello, my name is Jay Abitz and I teach Automotive and Collision Repair Technology in the Technology Education Department at Freedom High School. I started teaching at Freedom in the fall of 2007, taking over from my father Bob Abitz who built this very well known and successful program over 35 years. I am very involved in our SkillsUSA (VICA) Collision Repair program, and as a 2-time state champion, I am building this program for continuing success in the future. I have been a member of the National Education Team for Collision Repair since 2007 and I also serve on the collision repair advisory committee for the fox valley. I started the Freedom Auto Club in 2008 which serves the students of Freedom High School as a positive after school activity. My goal in education is to serve my students and the community to the best of my abilities and have my program reflect the best attributes of our school and the town of Freedom. I am a proud graduate of Freedom High School (2002) and I furthered my education at Fox Valley Technical College, received a bachelors degree in Technology Education from the University of Wisconsin Stout and I am currently pursuing a masters of education in instructional technology from Cardinal Stritch University.
