Amy, an Early Childhood Special Education Teacher, wanted to become a teacher since she was in first grade inspired by her own amazing teacher, Mrs. Weatherholt. She has nearly 20 years of experience teaching preschool in the Longmont area. Amy completed her undergraduate degree in Human Development and Family Studies with a focus area in Early Childhood Education at Colorado State University and later earned her Master’s Degree in Early Childhood Special Education from the University of Northern Colorado. She also has a minor in Spanish and speaks sufficiently to communicate with families. The past few years Amy has participated in many leadership opportunities at Spark! including the Design / LeadershipTeam and STEM committee. Amy enjoys spending time with her family and pets. She loves craft projects, reading, adult coloring books, tv shows and hanging out with friends. Preschool is Amy’s passion, and she is grateful for the amazing teamwork opportunities at Spark.
