Ms. Michelle Cole
Welcome to Kindergarten!
I love anything and everything about Disney. I love taking vacations to the beach. In fact, I have gone to the beach every year since I was a baby. My best friend Amy and I started an annual beach vacation tradition that we take with our families. I have three kids. Dilan is an amazing photographer, Haylee is an artist and will be a sophomore at Colorado State University and Addisen will be a senior in High School. I have two fur babies named Phineas and Charlee. In my spare time, I love watching football on Sundays. Fly Eagles Fly! You will also find my bestie Amy and I at Dutch Bros on sticker day.
I graduated from Arizona State University with a Bachelor's Degree in Marketing. I have been in a classroom since 2016. I began my teaching career as a substitute teacher. In 2017-2018, I was a long-term gifted substitute at Norterra Canyon. I worked with 1st - 6th grade students. I then moved to Sunset Ridge where, for the next two years, I worked as a Paraprofessional in Junior High and Level C. I then moved to the Developmental Preschool as a Paraprofessional, where I gained even more experience working with 3 - 5-year-olds. I taught first grade at Sunrise last year and am so excited about teaching Kindergarten this year!
As a teacher, I am very patient, flexible and open-minded. I encourage my students to ask questions, take risks and overcome the fear of making mistakes, as this is part of the learning process. I want my students to feel safe, be kind and feel like we are a family.
