Terri Rosendo
Pre-K Teacher
Biography
I came to SkyVeiw last year in as an assistant teacher to Mrs. Eastmond. We had worked together previously and she asked me to be her assistant here at SkyView. At the end of the last school year I was asked to teacher in the 3 year old classroom. This will be my first year teaching at SkyView Academy and I am so pleased to do so. I love teaching these little people, because I am getting in on the ground floor so to speak. I have the opportunity to teach them things that will stay with them for life, not just academics, but also social and emotional. This is going to be an exciting journey. I enjoy a variety of outdoor activities such as hiking, camping, rafting, snowmobiling etc. I have never been a skier, but some day I will. I also enjoy cooking.

Biography
I am thrilled to be joining the Elementary Spanish team for my first year at SkyView. A Colorado native, I received my undergrad from Colorado State University before living in Mexico for two years as a Fulbright English Teaching Assistant. Among my favorite things about living in Mexico are the street vendors selling delicious treats, the warmth of the people and the richness of cultural traditions dating back centuries. It is my joy to share the Spanish language and the culture of those who speak it with SkyView students while making language learning meaningful and engaging. When not with students, I enjoy hiking in the mountains, making music and spending time with my family!
