Sarai Amaya

Welcome to Ms. Amaya's 1st grade classroom! I hope everyone had a great summer, but I sure am ready to see our amazing scholars again! 

About Me:

My name is Ms. Amaya and this will be my second year teaching first grade at James Madison STEAM Elementary and my second year teaching overall. I received my bachelor's degree in Elementary Education with a Culturally and Linguistically Diverse endorsement from the University of Northern Colorado in fall of 2022. 

I was raised here in the Greeley area and I actually attended a couple schools here in the Greeley-Evans district for elementary and middle school, so I have come full-circle! When I'm not teaching I like to listen to music, watch soccer with my dad, hike / go to the mountains, hang out with family, and capture pictures of the sunrise/sunset. 

I am so excited to work with your students and witness all the growth and learning we will be accomplishing together this upcoming year! The JMSA scholars are brilliant, capable, and I feel privileged to be their teacher.
