Hello! My name is Maisy Albaugh, and I am so excited to be teaching kindergarten at Northridge! I have been at Northridge for six years. I attended the University of Northern Colorado and earned my Bachelors in Elementary Education with a concentration in Culturally and Linguistically Diverse Education. Prior to teaching at Northridge, I have experience in Weld County Schools and Cherry Creek Schools. I absolutely love Northridge, and am happy to call this school home!
My passion in life is teaching! I believe all children are unique and must have a stimulating educational environment where they can grow physically, mentally, emotionally, and socially. It is my desire to ensure students can meet their full potential. I will provide a safe environment where students are cared for, are invited to share their ideas, and take risks. We will become a family of learners!
I am a proud Colorado native, and former Douglas County student! While I am not teaching I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, being active, exploring the mountains, reading, and baking!
I am so excited for this upcoming year and getting to know each family and each student for the unique learner they are.

Hi there! My name is Taylor Cody and I am a first year teacher. I am so excited to be beginning my career at Northridge Elementary! I graduated from the University of Northern Colorado with my Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education with a concentration in Culturally and Linguistically Diverse Education. I student taught in a first grade classroom in Jefferson County, and worked as a paraprofessional in Jefferson and Denver County Public Schools. I have a passion for watching students learn and grow, and cannot wait to build our classroom family this year!
Outside of school, I enjoy spending time with my friends and family, reading books, crocheting and going to the gym. I enjoy walking my dogs, Roo and Lucy, and love to be outside near the water!
I cannot wait to get to know every family and student this year as we build onto our community!

Hi NRE Kindergarten Families!
My name is Tara and I am so excited to learn and grow with you all this year! I am embarking on my 10th year teaching in Douglas County School District and my fourth year at Northridge Elementary. Before starting my adventure at Northridge, I taught in a Douglas County Preschool and loved every minute of it.
I graduated from the University of Colorado Boulder where I received my Bachelors degree in both Psychology and Art. I continued on to get my Masters in Educational Psychology with an emphasis in Human Learning and Development from the University of Colorado Denver. I have been in the classroom ever since :)
In my spare time, I love getting outside and active, taking my dogs, Myla and Tilly, to the dog park, and spending time with my family.
I am so excited for this upcoming year and to get to know each family and each individual child for the special and unique person that they are!
Yours in learning,
Tara
