Welcome to 2022/2023
Welcome Owls!
Hard to believe we are already kicking off the 2022/2023 school year. I am so excited to be joining the Conrad team. The summer went quick, but I know the staff here is so eager to get our students in their rooms, and I am anxious to meet all of our new and returning families!!
We have a few new staff members joining us this year. First, Laura Browning (myself) will be the new administrator of Conrad. I am a CO native and began my teaching career in District 8. I am excited to return to Fountain and partner with families in service of our students.
We are welcoming two new ECSE staff members this year to Conrad. Janel Lippy joins us from OR originally and she comes from a SPED background. She has homeschooled her 2 sons for the last 17 years, and enjoys hiking and fiber arts. Janel’s husband is a musician in the military, so they have lived everywhere from VA to AK! Janel will be finishing her MA in June through the University of Oregon.
Katelyn Huddleston joins us from the UCCS Family Development center, where she has worked for the past 7 years with ages 2.5-5. Katelyn grew up in Rye, CO. She has one cat, Emmy, earned her BA in history from UCCS, and is completing her grad working on MA in SPED. Katelynn enjoys reading and hiking.
Here at Conrad, we all believe in each and every student. We all look forward to partnering with you and your child(ren), watching them grow through exploration and purposeful play. Please, reach out if you have any questions in regards to the upcoming year!
In Service of All,
Laura Browning
