Hello, My name is Summer Danser. I am the nurse at Mountain Ridge Middle School and the Lone Tree Bridge Program. I graduated from Westminster College in Salt Lake City, Utah, with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Nursing in 2004. The majority of my nursing career has been specialized in Women and Children, primarily in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. I joined the DCSD nursing team in 2019, and have loved every minute of it! I have a passion for health and wellness, as well as education. I really enjoy helping students through trying times, and helping them learn to care about, and be independent with, their health.

I moved to Colorado immediately after graduating in 2004, and besides a quick 1.5 years in St. Louis, I've been here ever since. I am married with 3 awesome kids, and last October I even gained a daughter-in-law! We are a family of animal lovers and currently our fur babies are, Slater, a silver lab, and Phoebe, a French Bulldog! I love to be active, playing sports and games, camping and hiking. My happy place is on a beach with the warm sun on my face! I am a die-hard Broncos fan and enjoy supporting all the Colorado teams.
