I am entering my 14th year of teaching and have taught kindergarten, first grade, special education 4th and 5th grade, and am now in second grade. I received my bachelor’s degree in Liberal Arts with an emphasis in elementary education in 2007 from the University of Northern Colorado. I then went on to receive my masters degree in special education generalist from the University of Northern Colorado in 2012. I am licensed to teach elementary education K-6 as well as special education.
I enjoy working at Vanguard because of the diverse population. I like learning about all of the different backgrounds my students come from and finding ways to incorporate that into my classroom. I have learned so much in the four years I have been here and cannot wait to see what I will learn this year. I have always had a passion for working with kids and have known from a young age that I would like to devote my life to it. I enjoy helping my students succeed and helping them reach even higher goals. Once a student has been in my class, they remain one of my students in my heart forever.
Hello! My name is Courtney Hunt and I am a second grade teacher at Vanguard Classical School's West Campus. I have a Master's degree in Early Childhood Education from Georgia College & State University, and seven years of teaching experience--four of which have been at VCS! I love teaching second grade because the students are beginning to look outside of themselves, are full of curiosity, and eager to learn about the world around them. I am originally from Atlanta, Georgia but moved to Denver four years ago from Southeast, Alaska where I lived and worked for three and half years. When I am not teaching, I enjoy outdoor activities, singing, dancing, cooking, and live music! Teaching is my greatest passion and I always look forward to what the next school year will bring.
EmailHi, my name is Clarissa Pieper and I am new to VCS this year. I grew up moving around a lot! I have lived in Virginia, Kazakhstan, Russia, Utah and Illinois. I moved to Denver from Chicago in 2019 and I am loving it! My BA is in Russian and I am currently working on an M.Ed through Regis University. I love to travel, bake, read, and spend time outdoors with my husband and two dogs. I have experience working one-on-one with students and enjoy keeping everyone engaged and excited about learning! I love learning about art, history, and language, and hope to one day teach internationally.
Hello my name is Alexis Hawkins. This is my second year at Vanguard but, first year as an EA. I am very excited to be with such an amazing team!
