About Me
Hello! I'm Ethan Kuhlmann
During school, you can find me...
In the Language Arts Office or room C-1454, collaborating with colleagues, lesson planning, and meeting with students.
Outside of school, you can find me...
Grading and planning during the school year
Running with the AHS Cross-Country team as an assistant coach
Running and riding bikes on the roads and trails of Colorado
Camping, backpacking, and hiking all over the mountain west.
Reading lots of good books--look me up on Goodreads (ethan kuhlmann).
Writing--I'm a member of a couple of writer's groups, as well as the Denver Writing Project and National Writing Project
Travelling--some recent destinations include the Big Horn Mountains of Wyoming, Lake Champlain in Vermont, and the Colorado mountains.
Listening to music--concerts, LPs, CDs, Spotify, etc.. I listen to music of all types.
Hanging out with friends and family, including my wife, Mrs. Abby Kuhlmann (assistant principal and activities director at AHS). We got married at the end of December 2017. We have a 4 year-old daughter named Kate and a 2 year-old daughter named Mae. I couldn't be more proud and happy to spend my life with my family.
I never thought I would teach, but I do because...
It's the hardest, most challenging, and most rewarding thing I have ever done.
It's a never-ending task involving close relationships, trust, rigor, and care.
I never look at the clock and wish time would go faster.
I trust, admire, and feed off the creativity of those I teach with in Arapahoe's Language Arts Department.
I want students to be able to read and use language & empower them to both understand and create themselves in an ever-changing world of words.
What Makes Me a Warrior:
Amidst this wild, and beautiful world, I actively seek ways to care, trust, question, explore, and grow with EVERYONE.Â
