PTO Announcements

Student Council Canned Food Drive

Student Council will be holding a 4 day food drive to benefit needy families within CCSD.  The food drive is also a friendly competition between grade levels here at Pine Ridge.  The grade level with the most non-perishable food items will be rewarded with an ice cream party!!!!   Each item is worth 1 point.  There will be ONE bonus item (peanut butter) that will earn your grade level 5 points!!!!  The winning grade level is based on the average number of points per student (not total points) due to different number of students at each grade.  Watch the daily totals at the main office.  Good luck and thanks for your support.

About Me

My photo
Welcome to the 2013-2014 school year! I am so happy and grateful to be a part of the Buffalo Trail community and especially the wonderful 5th grade team. This is my 2nd year at BTE and my 12th year of teaching. I have taught 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades in Kentucky and Colorado. Before moving to Denver three years ago, I lived in Northern Kentucky near Cincinnati, Ohio. I earned a BS from the University of Kentucky and my MAT from the University of Louisville. In 2007, I became a National Board Certified Teacher with an emphasis in Early/Middle Childhood Reading and Language Arts. In my free time, I love to read, ride my bike, try new restaurants, and go to concerts/sports events. I love cheering my teams on during basketball season, hiking, and skiing. I am loving Colorful Colorado and look forward to our new adventures together!
