Hello My Name Is...
Kayla Draper

Hi! My name is Kayla Draper and this is my seventh year at Rock Ridge. I  spent the three years before RRE teaching second grade at World Compass Academy. I graduated from Colorado State University with a B.S. in Human Development and Family Studies. I also earned my Master's in Elementary Education from the University of Northern Colorado. I am looking forward to having another great year at Rock Ridge!!

When I am not teaching I enjoy hiking, mountain drives, and anything crafty! I have a nine year old cat named Bowie that I adopted from the Buddy Center here in Castle Rock 8 years ago.

Hello!  My name is Brittany Farris.  This is my third year teaching and first year as a 6th grade teacher at Rock Ridge.  Prior to this school year, I taught 8th grade Wellness at Mesa Middle School (2 years), and I was the Volunteer Coordinator and an Instructional Assistant at RRE (6 years).  I graduated from Brigham Young University with a B.S. in Marriage, Family and Human Development and received my Alternative Teaching License from CU Denver.  I am looking forward to being back at Rock Ridge in 6th grade!!

When I am not teaching, I enjoy spending time with my family (I have 9 kids & step kids!) and friends, hiking, going for walks, playing the piano, and traveling.  

My class motto is “Be the best you, you can be.”  Whether it’s academics or behavior, I encourage my students to always strive to do their best.

Hello, My name is...

Mrs. Lott

I am Misty Lott and I am so excited to be teaching Fourth Grade! 

To begin, here is a little about me! I grew up in Roy, Utah, and graduated from Weber State University. I decided to move to Colorado because of fond memories from a family vacation. So years later, here I am in beautiful Colorado!!

I enjoy spending time with my family Eric, Brynley and husband John. I also have one dog named Autumn and two birds: Sprite and Lorenzo. I enjoy yoga, swimming, shopping, and going to the movies. My favorite television shows are Dancing with the Stars, The Price is Right and almost everything on the Discovery Channel. 

I have been teaching for 21 years, this will be my 22nd year. Teaching has always been rewarding for me. I am always searching for new and fun ways to enrich my teaching and therefore the students' learning. I enjoy having the students explore concepts with a hands on approach and integrating technology as much as possible. My goal is to foster a curiousity in all areas of learning, where we all can ask questions and investigate together!! 

I like to hear of fun and exciting web sites that correlate with our curriculum, so if you find anything that would be of use, let me know!! Contact me via email: INTERNAL LINK [email protected]>
