Hello! My name is Sarah Page and I am excited to start this school year with you! I will be heading into my 15th year of teaching, and my 6th year of teaching at CCE. I obtained my B.S. in Elementary Education from New Mexico State University and prior to moving to Colorado, I taught 2nd and 3rd grade in New Mexico. I enjoy teaching the primary grades, and first grade is one of my favorites! First graders are so fun to work with and I enjoy seeing how much they learn and grow throughout the year.
When I am not at school, I enjoy spending time with my family which includes my husband, two children, two dogs, and a cat. We have had fun exploring Colorado since we moved here 6 years ago. My children are both involved in Scouting, so we spend a lot of time outdoors camping, hiking, and enjoying nature. Some of my other favorite activities are reading, crafting, and cooking.
I know we are going to have a great year full of learning and fun! I am looking forward to meeting all of you!

Hello! My name is Kara Ryman and I am excited to be joining the first grade team and staff at Coyote Creek!
This will be my 4th year teaching first grade and my first at Coyote Creek! I spent the last 3 years teaching at St. Rose of Lima in Denver, CO. I obtained my MEd in Elementary Education from
the University of Northern Colorado.
Outside of teaching, I love spending time with my family and friends. I love hiking, biking, golfing and reading! I especially love going to Avalanche games and an occasional baseball game when the
Yankees are in town!
I feel very blessed to be a part of the CCE community. I look forward to meeting each and every single one of you! It is going to be an awesome year of learning and fun in 1st grade!

Hello! My name is Taylor Vaninger and I can’t wait for this school year to kick off! This is my first year teaching first grade, and I am so excited. I just graduated from Metropolitan State University of Denver with my elementary education degree and spent the last year student teaching at Eiber Elementary School with JEFFCO. I grew up in Highlands Ranch and I can’t wait to come back to a community I love so much.
Outside of teaching I love spending time with my family which consists of my husband, Danny who is a firefighter for South Metro, and our fur baby, Red, who is a golden retriever. We are both Colorado natives so we love taking advantage of our beautiful state! We love to go camping and snowboarding, and I love to garden, watch movies, and hike. We just got married this July in Granby, so we are enjoying the peace and quiet from all the wedding fun!
I can’t wait for this school year, I know we are going to learn so much and have fun doing it!
