Learning, laughing, growing!
This is my 27th year in education, and I am excited to continue my teaching journey in second grade this year! I have already had the opportunity to teach both third and fourth grade, and am excited to work with this age group and watch students grow both academically and personally.
I earned my undergraduate degree from the University of Colorado Boulder and my master’s degree in Reading from Adams State University. I look forward to creating a classroom where students feel supported, challenged, and excited to learn.
Outside of school, I enjoy spending time with my family. I have a daughter who is starting high school, and my husband recently retired from teaching after a career in education. When I’m not at school, you can usually find me reading, gardening, or cooking. I am looking forward to another wonderful year of learning, growing, and making memories with my students!
My Name is Elyse Vogel and I am thrilled to be joining the second grade team at Peakview! While I have been a part of the Cherry Creek School District for the last 15 years teaching kindergarten, I am so excited to be continuing my teaching journey at Peakview! Second grade is such a milestone year full of immense growth, new discoveries, and fun challenges, and I can’t wait to embark on this journey alongside your children.
I graduated from Colorado State University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Human Development and Family Studies and Early Childhood Education and earned my Master's Degree in teaching Reading.
When I am not in the classroom, I enjoy spending time with my husband and four children. We love playing board games and going paddle boarding together.

I'm excited to begin another year with the second grade team at Peakview! This will be my 24th year as a proud Peakview Eagle and my 33rd year in education. I've taught 2nd through 5th grade, and I'm so happy to continue teaching second grade—it's such a wonderful year of learning, growth, and discovery.
I earned my Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education from Mount Mercy College and my Master of Arts in Elementary Education with an emphasis in Reading from the University of Iowa. I enjoy finding meaningful ways to help students grow as confident readers, writers, and learners.
Outside of school, I enjoy spending time with my husband and daughters. We love hiking and making memories together!
