My name is Natalie Gisness.  This will be my second year at Centennial and in the 4th grade.  I received my Masters in Elementary Education from University of Northern Colorado in 2021.  Before teaching, I received a Bachelor's in Biology and Zoology from Colorado State University and worked in the veterinary industry, where I got to love on animals every day.

I am a Colorado native, and don't plan on ever leaving because I don't think I could ever live somewhere I couldn't see the mountains.  I love the arts, and participated in band, choir, theatre, and dance throughout high school and college.  I was also a figure skater growing up and have grown to love all sports that take place on the ice.

My favorite subjects when I was in school were math, reading, and science, but I am looking forward to teaching all the subjects to fourth grade this year.  I am so excited to grow and learn alongside our Centennial scholars.
