About my Teacher

Hello my fellow Gators!

My name is Kristie Nucci or Mrs. Nucci. I have been teaching here at Garden Gate since the 2002-2003 school year. Before that I spent two years teaching special education in San Diego and one year teaching in Los Angeles. In fact I lived in San Diego for 8 years! I went to college at San Diego State University and received my bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Development in December 1997 and then received two teaching credentials in May of 1999: multiple subject and special education.

Currently I am married to my husband Chris (Christopher). We have two sons: Christopher and Charlie. Christopher will be a junior at Christopher High School in Gilroy, and Charlie will be a sixth grader at Brownelle Middle School in Gilroy. . We enjoy doing many things as a family: camping, fishing, traveling to see family, and the occasional trips to different amusement parks in California. This summer we enjoyed our annual camping trip to Lake Alpine, tried a new spot in Lewiston , CA just northeast of Redding, and went on a thrill seeking adventure to Universal Studios and Knott's Berry Farm. Our family has a black lab, Snoop too!
