Matthew Wahl
Carpentersville, IL
Hi Everyone! My name is Mr. (Matthew) Wahl and this is my third year teaching at DCHS. Although this is my third year teaching at D-C, I have spent time working at Schaumburg High school and I also graduated from Dundee-Crown. I currently teach world history and AP human geography, and sociology.
When I am not teaching, I enjoy spending time with my wife, Jen and my two-moth old son Aidain. I also enjoy running, coaching wrestling and cross-country, going to baseball games, reading, and doing crossword puzzles.
