Bio
My name is Julie Couch and I am a graduate of Fort Lewis College in Durango. I began teaching in 1990. Almost all of my teaching experience has been in the primary grades. I am married with three children and seven grandchildren. I love spending time with my family and friends! We are a big sports family. We love the Broncos, Avalanche, Rockies, CSU Rams, and the KU Jayhawks. My daughter is attending the University of Kansas, so that is how we became Jayhawk Fans. I have been at Centennial Elementary since they opened in 2008. I was a member of the planning committee to open the school, and I have taught kindergarten every year since we opened. I am very blessed to be part of the Centennial community!
