Staff Spotlight

Claudia Robles - Assistant Teacher in Toddlers

Hi, my name is Ms. Claudia and I am an Assistant Teacher in the Hedgehog classroom. I have been teaching for 12 years but I began teaching here at St. John's this past August. I have 3 children, two boys and a girl. My oldest son is a United States Marine and my two youngest children are both in school and working.

I have a Bachelor's Degree in Theology from Latin University of Theology. I also went to Community College of Denver to take classes about teaching. I love to go and drive around the mountains, swim, go for walks, and read. I am a Christian and I love God. I love to teach children and I am truly blessed by God for the opportunity that St. John's has given me to teach the children at this school.

If you've got little ones and are looking for some friends and other moms to talk about life with little kids, join us in the community room on April 1, April 22, and May 6. Dinner is provided and childcare is available. Please click the registration link to let us know you are coming!

Join us for an enchanting Masquerade-themed evening to support Phase 2 of our Building Refurbishment Project.

New Teacher Snack Sign-Up

The PTO would like to have volunteers bring the teachers snacks and drinks every other Friday. We will put the snacks and drinks out for the teachers, if you bring them to the ELC Office at drop-off or pick-up.

Please, no snacks containing nuts, as we want to be cautious of allergies in the ELC, and we prefer the items to be sore bought and individually wrapped, if possible. We currently have a surplus of sparkling water piling up in the office, so please try to avoid bringing in anymore sparkling water for the time being.

See the link below to sign-up for upcoming dates. Thank you all so very much for bringing special treats! It is so appreciated!
