Dear First Grade Families!
My name is McKenzie Spond and I am so excited to welcome you and your child to First Grade at Gold Rush! First Grade is such an exciting time for kids, I love seeing the pride in their faces when they learn to do something new. They come so full of curiosity and eagerness to learn new things.
This will be my eighth year teaching and my sixth year here at Gold Rush! I am a Colorado Native and absolutely love Colorado. In 2018, I graduated from Colorado State University in Early Childhood Education and received my masters from University of Colorado at Colorado Springs with an emphasis in Literacy.
When I am not teaching, I love finding new golf courses to play, spending time with my family and friends, going to Avs games and playing pickle ball!
Please remember I am always here for you and your child. Never hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns. I look forward to meeting you and getting to know your child! We are going to have an amazing year!
Warmly,
McKenzie Spond
