Hey everyone! I'd like to introduce myself...

My name is Casey Payte and this is my 24th year of teaching! I'm so excited to be your child's teacher this year and can't wait for all the adventures to come. 

I grew up in Colorado and try to get back there every chance I get. I was lucky enough to land a teaching job at Cardiff 17 years ago and still have to pinch myself to make sure I'm not dreaming. 

I've been married for 20 years and have an 13 year old son. On the weekends we enjoy paddle boarding, biking, and hiking and spend lots of time at the local beaches and parks. 

...And we're off!
