Mrs. Kirsten Kuhns

 

Hello! My name is Kirsten Kuhns, and I will be the 4th grade ELA and Social Studies teacher here at Las Brisas. I have been in education for four years now, but, this is my first year in 4th grade and at DVUSD. I have a Bachelor's in Elementary Education and Special Education as well as a Master's in Educational Leadership, both from Grand Canyon University. Lopes up! 

I have been married to my husband for three years. We love to travel, read, and be with friends and family, as well as spend time with our goldendoodle puppy, Mushu. I was born and raised in the beautiful state of Oregon and moved to Arizona six years ago to attend college, and fell in love with the desert.

I have such a passion for education and believe all students are capable of learning. My goal is to create a learning environment where students feel valued, safe, and are excited to come to school each day. I love the relationships that are built with students and families through the gift of learning. I am excited to partner with you this school year.
