Biography

About Karin Ward

My dad was a teacher at Tucson Unified. He told me I was crazy to go into teaching, but I did anyway. After graduating from college in Tempe in 1981, I began my teaching career in a second grade classroom at Paradise Valley School District. I moved to the middle school where I taught computers, social studies, and Spanish...oh, and met my husband. We moved to Chino Valley to raise our children and chickens. I finished my masters in educational leadership from Northern Arizona University. I left the classroom after twenty years. After being a principal at Liberty Traditional School for three years, I felt called to come to Beaver Creek as the principal and superintendent. I began as a Creeker in 2004 and LOVE being here. The families are wonderful. The community is amazing...just look at the new buildings paid for by taxpayers voting in a bond. The only reason we come to work every day is to make a difference in the lives of our students. Thank you for entrusting your children to us!

About Carolyn Kukulski

I'm Mrs. Carrie Kukulski, and I teach 2nd grade. I went back to get a teaching degree after I helped out at my children's school. I have been teaching for seven years, and I love coming to school every day. I finally feel like I am where I'm supposed to be. The kids are always the spark that gets me interested and helps me to be a more creative learner/teacher.

I love teaching the students at Beaver Creek School. Watching and helping the students learn and mature gives me a great joy in my heart and the excitement to keep teaching. Seeing the growth that a child makes in your classroom is an amazing feeling that makes me feel complete.

About Allie Wheeler

I moved to Rimrock from Flagstaff after graduating from NAU. I was very excited to find a school just down the street from my house. I love living and working in this community! It is great to teach during the day and then see my students riding their bikes through my neighborhood at night. My favorite part about teaching would have to be watching a child who has struggled with a concept finally understand it. The look on the child's face is priceless! I am enjoying my time at Beaver Creek and look forward to seeing your children.
