Karen Wagner

Gifted and Talented Program Teacher

This will be my 1st year providing Gifted and Talented support at Columbine, and my 5th year working as a Gifted and Talented Itinerant Teacher. I have worked in gifted education since 2007, and love challenging students to reach their full potential and recognize their strengths. My first experience teaching was in a small town near Nagoya, Japan, where I lived for 2 years. I love traveling to other countries, learning new languages, experiencing new cultures, and learning how to cook traditional food from various countries. I also really enjoy being active outdoors. At home I love spending time with my husband, my two sons, and my kitten. My sons are entering 1st and 5th grade. Yo hablo español.This will be my 1st year providing Gifted and Talented support at Columbine, and my 5th year working as a Gifted and Talented Itinerant Teacher.
