Andrea Griffin: I graduated from Saint Michael’s College with a secondary teaching degree in English. I went on to complete my Master’s Degree in Special Education. I hold certification in English Language Arts (K-12) and HTQ status in Social Studies, Science and Math through grade 8 along with National Board Certification in English Language Arts. I absolutely love teaching Humanities. I live in Essex Junction with my husband and our two sons, Timmy and Patrick. I enjoy playing board games, gardening, reading, and relaxing. I am an avid sports fan and love watching all sports.
Cris Milks: I have been at WCS since 2001 working in several different roles throughout the school, all related to Math (Math Coordinator, Enrichment Teacher, Math Interventionist and Math and Science classroom teacher). I am thrilled to be returning to the role of math classroom teacher on Cedar House. My background includes degrees in Outdoor and Environmental Ed. (undergraduate) and Mathematics Education (graduate). I have also been fortunate to be able to do some consulting work in math education throughout the state over the past few decades. I live in Williston with my husband, daughters (Sylvie and Georgia) and my puppy (Sammy) and cat (Luigi). In my free time, I love traveling, cooking, hiking, paddling and reading.
Colleen O'Brien: Hello! I’m excited to be teaching science on Cedar House this year! In my 25nd year as a public school educator, and my 14th at Williston Central, I’m thrilled to be exploring science with our students. I love biking and skiing and playing outside with my boys and husband. The ocean is home for me, but the woods and mountains are a close second! I believe in young people and their potential to grow and learn as individuals, members of our school, and our greater worldwide communities. It is a privilege to be an educator. I cannot think of a better way to spend my time than with young people bound for a world of opportunity and discovery!
June Gulla: I am a Cedar House Teacher and Case Manager. Depending on what is needed, I co-teach in Math and Humanities; I teach small reading, writing and math classes. I have been teaching here at Williston Central School since 2000. For fun, I love to travel, yoga, hiking and spending time on the lake boating! I prefer a life filled with new adventures, new learning and to be surrounded by family and friends as often as possible. I have a fabulous and spunky daughter named Riley and a beautiful labradoodle named Blue who both add so much love and light to my life!
Ingrid Luby: I was born in Caracas, Venezuela. I graduated from the University of Alejandro De Humbodlt where I received a Bachelor's Degree in International Business. Throughout my studies I developed a passion for learning new cultures and languages. I moved to Vermont in 2007, and completed my nursing license at the UVM medical center. I have over 8 years experience as a professional in the health care industry and have worked as a Paraeducator. I have a true passion for working with our youngest learners! Helping each child progress in all areas of their development is an amazing opportunity that I am honored to accept daily.
I live in Williston with my husband and two young boys. In my free time I enjoy snowboarding, hiking, biking and finding new adventures with my family.
