Faculty K-5

Hello, I'm Ms. McEwen! I've been teaching Kindergarten at Summit Academy for 9 years and I love it! Working with the kids is a blast! I love getting to know their silly little personalities and watching the amazing growth they make throughout the year!  In my spare time I like to play sports like volleyball or spike ball. I love to spend time outside hiking or riding my bike. I love spending time with my family and traveling! I’m excited for another great year at Summit!  

I've been in Kindergarten at Summit since 2017, and I love it! I'm passionate about helping early childhood learners unlock the tools that will make them great readers.  

I am very excited to get to know your students and look forward to being part of their educational experience!

 I absolutely love working with kids and helping them grow.

I love children and want to help them to grow into strong, happy, kind, and independent individuals.

 I love working with all our amazing students helping them grow and learn.

My kids have attended Summit Academy, and I feel lucky to be a teacher here!!

I grew up being a Falcon and I am excited to give back! 

I love being a part of this amazing community. Being able to help children learn and grow is so rewarding.   

Hi, My name is Mrs. Dee. I love being in the classroom and watching kiddos grow and evolve personally and academically. When I am not teaching,  or spending time with my family, I am usually training for a trail race. I love to run long distances out in nature. 

We are going to have a fun year full of learning. I am looking forward to a great year with all your children.

I am a proud Latina educator with 15 years of teaching experience. I love inspiring students to grow as bilingual learners and to value both language and culture. At Summit Academy, I am excited to continue helping children learn, thrive, and discover the joy of learning two languages.

I love teaching because I get to be around the most enthusiastic and inquisitive people on earth – the kids!

Students do not care how much you know, until they know how much you care.

I can’t wait to get to know your students this year! 😊

I've been teaching at Summit since 2015. I love spending time with my family. When I'm not at school, you might find me reading, watching movies, or snacking. 

I love teaching and am thrilled to watch students learn, thrive, and be successful!

 I love running, rock climbing and reading.

I have worked in education for 20 years, and taught for 19. I attended the U of U to obtain my Bachelor's in Elementary Education, and University of Phoenix to receive a Master's Degree in Instruction and Curriculum in Mathematics. I enjoy rock climbing, snowboarding, cycling, and Jiu Jitsu. I own a small knitting company, and I love to sew. Teaching is my super power!

I have been at Summit since 2020 and I love being part of this wonderful community. I am grateful to work with such amazing students each year, and to see their hard work and progress. In my free time, I enjoy camping, hiking, watching football, and spending time with my family.

We have a fabulous second grade team.  I am excited for this adventure of learning with your child.

Each new day is an opportunity to make the world a better place. Helping my students learn, grow, and be the difference they want to see in the world brings me endless joy—something eight-year-old me always dreamed of.

"I'm so excited to help your amazing students grow into the best people they can be!"

I have a passion for helping students, reading, baking, music, and fitness.  

 I have an ambitious curiosity for the Sciences, and a voracious love of Reading, both of which I can’t wait to share with my students.

I'm so excited to meet you and watch you grow and learn this year!

 I feel one of the best ways to express oneself is through art. My hope is every student who leaves my class understands the impact they can make in the world around them through art.
