Bio

My name is Noelia Silva. I am from Mexico but have lived in Colorado for over 20 years. I graduated from the University of Northern Colorado with a degree in Early Childhood Education and earned an associate degree in Elementary Education from Aims Community College. I love Columbine, and I am so grateful to be the Bi-literacy Kindergarten teacher. I like spending time with my family and helping my students discover how capable they are of learning and doing great things!
