PLS/IB Coordinator - Pam Gutierrez

Mrs. Gutierrez

My name is Mrs. Pam Gutierrez and I thoroughly enjoy being the Professional Learning Specialist, IB/PYP Coordinator, READ Act Coordinator, G/T Facilitator, Kindergarten School Readiness Coordinator, and 504 Coordinator here at Rock Ridge Elementary.

I've been in education for nearly 30 years in Poudre R-1 District, Arapahoe County, Douglas County, and in the private sector; at Word of Life Academy. I have now been at Rock Ridge Elementary for 14 years. I received my BA in Child Psychology from Utah State University. I then received my teaching certification from the University of Northern Colorado and additionally my Master's degree in Education from Grand Canyon University.

The entire staff at RRE is the most caring group of people that I have ever met or worked with and I am incredibly thankful that my own children were once in attendance here.

I enjoy reading, spending time with my family, fishing, golfing, traveling, shopping, and watching the Colorado sunsets. I was born in South Dakota, and grew up in Iowa but went to high school here in Colorado. I also enjoy watching football and baseball games, especially when the Denver Broncos or Colorado Rockies are playing!

My husband is an Elementary School Director here in Douglas County.

We have a son and daughter who also attended & graduated from Douglas County Schools.

My favorite weekend activities are watching my son and daughter play ball. They are the loves of my life!

I am truly blessed to continue my career and have my leadership position here at Rock Ridge Elementary!
