Ellie Goldberg, K teacher

I could not be more excited to join the incredible community of educators and families at Creekside this fall! I came to Boulder from St. Louis for college in 1997. I met my husband Ben in 2001 and we spent many years leading wilderness trips. After teaching preschool for a year in St. Louis, I returned to Boulder, where I got my teaching license at CU and Ben and I had our two amazing girls: Sylvie (9th) and Nina (7th). I taught 5th grade in BVSD for a few years before becoming a literacy interventionist. I have my M.Ed. in Reading from Regis and I am a Certified Academic Language Practitioner (CALP).

I spent many wonderful years as a learning specialist teaching literacy and math to 1st graders at Hillside School and as a K-5th literacy interventionist in St. Vrain Valley School District. Being with kindergarteners brings me tremendous joy: I love getting to know each one and am inspired by their curiosity and enthusiasm. In addition to teaching, I love to be with my family, swim, run the south Boulder trails, and read.
