WELCOME TO FOURTH GRADE!

I am so excited that you are here.  Fourth grade is going to be the best!  In case you missed my email, please allow me to introduce myself. I am originally from Connecticut, but I moved to Colorado in 2010.  I studied Environmental Science and Music at Bard College and then received my Masters in Education with an emphasis in Reading from Western State.  I taught first grade in Aspen before moving to Crested Butte in 2016. I’ve worked with the reading intervention and special education teams for two years here in Crested Butte and I am thrilled to be joining the fourth grade team this year.  I live with my husband Matt and two dogs. In my free time I enjoy trail running, skiing, and everything outside. 

​Take a look at our classroom website.  You'll notice pictures from first grade, but this will give you an idea of how I like to keep families up to date on our classroom happenings throughout the school year. 

Please don't ever hesitate to get in touch with me if you have any questions or concerns.
