My name is Sophia Michelau and this is my fifth year at Sand Creek. I taught K-2 in Minnesota prior to taking a year off to travel around the US in an RV. I started at Sand Creek teaching second grade and have come to LOVE teaching grade level combination classrooms! Teaching has always been a huge passion of mine. I love building relationships with my students and helping them love learning by making it fun and engaging. My background is in Elementary Education, and I recently completed my Master's in Education with an emphasis in Culturally Responsive Teaching. In my free time, I love hiking, reading and exploring everywhere dog-friendly! I am excited to call Colorado home and be a part of the Sand Creek family.
My name is Betsy Ruppert, and I'm excited to teach 3rd grade at Sand Creek Elementary! This will be my seventh year teaching at the elementary level and my third year teaching at Sand Creek! Teaching third grade is my absolute favorite! I have 3 kids, and we enjoy going biking, swimming, fishing, and kayaking in the summer. I am happy to be part of the SCE community!
