Kim Aplin

Though I was born and raised in Colorado, I now proudly call Central Oregon home. Teaching and the outdoors have a special place in my heart and calling of my soul. In 2013 I began my journey with the Redmond School District. I have worked alongside outstanding educators and administrators, learning and growing every day. Building these relationships with my colleagues, our students, and our families has fueled my love for the field of education and the work I do each day.

Working in a Title I school with 100% free-and-reduced lunch has provided me with many opportunities to grow as an educator. I've learned to love unconditionally and without judgement of families or students while holding each child to a high academic and behavioral standard. I believe every child can learn and develop into a thriving member of society while being authentic to themselves.

Outside of school, hiking, camping, and kayaking lure me outdoors with my family and my dog, Ash. We love spending our days out exploring and looking for treasures!
