Our Team

Director: Cora Gullickson

Hello! I am Cora Gullickson. I graduated from St. Cloud State University with a major in Elementary Education and a minor in coaching. I started my teaching career at Wisconsin Heights in 1994. I have been teaching since 1990 and have taught kindergarten, 2nd, 3rd and 4th grades. I recently retired to be the director at New Heights Neighborhood Kids.

I believe strongly in the sense of community. I want children to think creatively, solve problems respectfully, and feel valued. I encourage students to listen to each other and to practice empathy. We make mistakes, but recognize that the path towards success is messy. Above all, to recognize that greatness never needs an audience.

I enjoy spending time with my husband, two daughters and our beloved golden retrievers at our home in Mazomanie. I adore warm temperatures and love to be outside boating, kayaking, planting flowers, or simply relaxing with a good book.

I’m looking forward to my new opportunity as Director of New Heights Neighborhood Kids, where I’ll continue supporting children’s growth and development in a new and exciting way. While I’ll miss the role of a classroom teacher, I’m excited to make a positive impact in a broader capacity and work closely with both students and families.

I am a Wisconsin Heights alum and currently attend UW–Green Bay online, where I am studying Human Resource Management and Business Administration, with plans to graduate next year.

I have a love for working with children and a strong passion for being in an environment rooted in faith and love. I am excited and grateful to be starting my journey with New Heights Neighborhood Kids, where I can serve, support, and positively impact the lives of children and families in the community. I am ready to grow, give back, and be part of something meaningful.

My passion for teaching began in my dad’s special education classroom, and I love creating inclusive spaces where every child feels seen and valued. Outside of school, I enjoy crafting, kayaking with my fiancé Drew, and spending time with our miniature poodle, Daisey.

I’m so excited to join NHNK and help students grow academically, socially, and spiritually in a loving and joyful environment.

Eliza Gullickson

Hello, my name is Eliza Gullickson. I am from Mazomanie, WI and am a Wisconsin Heights alum. I graduated in 2019 and went off to UW-Oshkosh to get my Bachelors of Science in Elementary Education. I was lucky enough to do a student teaching internship for the 2nd grade team at Heights during the 2023 spring semester. After graduating, I was welcomed back full time in the 2nd grade position and have been there ever since! You may even see me teaching 4K during the summer school sessions. I love being involved in the student's lives across all ages!

I enjoy reading, cooking, spending time with friends and family, and going on walks with my family's 2 golden retrievers, Gus and Louie.

I am excited to work at New Heights Neighborhood Kids so I can be immersed in a space where creativity is a staple. As a teacher, I look forward to bringing my experience in a different setting.
