I am so excited to be starting my third year at SkyView Academy. I grew up in Cape Town and moved to London as a teenager with my family. After working as a Speech Therapist in London and for a political think tank in Brussels, I moved to the US. I then decided to pursue my passion for supporting all students as a School Counselor.…and I love what I do!…

Hello! My name is Becca Gendreau, and this is my second year at SVA. I'm just shy of being a Colorado native, having moved here at the age of 11. I left to attend college in Ohio and came right back afterward - I missed the sunshine and the mountains! I hold a Bachelor's degree in International Studies, a Bachelor's degree in Latin American Studies with a minor in Spanish, and a Master's in Elementary Education. My husband and I love to travel, hike, and cook!

This is my third year working in Student Support Services and helping MS students. I was a regular sub at SVA for two years prior to that. Before my stay-at-home mom years, I taught high school speech and English. I also dabbled in event planning and project management, but my favorite thing is working with teens. When not at work, I am with my family: my husband, three kids, and my dog. They are my whole world.

Music has been a part of my life since I was a young child – now I have the blessing and privilege of sharing music with students. I have been at SkyView Academy since 2013, and I absolutely love it! I teach K-5th grade music and direct the Sounds of the Sky Elementary Choir. My teaching journey started in Denver, and I transitioned to Heritage High School (my alma mater), then transitioned to staying home with my 3 boys (for 13 years). While I raised our boys, I also taught lessons and managed the Parker branch of the Children’s Music Academy. I live in Parker with my husband. I enjoy golfing, walks, paddle boarding, participating on my church worship team, coffee, jigsaw puzzles, reading a good book, and spending time with my family (we play many games and outdoor activities).

This is my 2nd year at SVA, and I have a new role as the 2nd grade ISP. Working in elementary school affords me the opportunity to continue to grow professionally and be my silly, loving self with students. I have an amazing husband, Mr. G., and a daughter, Ms. G., both of who substitute teach here. Here are some fun facts about me: I have three Boston Terriers and my fur kids (Venus, Solomon, and Nellie-Belle). My great-uncle had a part in the movie The Godfather, and my grandfather was the chauffeur for the Post family on Long Island. The cereal empire family and their estate were subsequently converted into C.W. Post College.
