Heather murphy

New Teacher Success Coach

I have been serving as an educator for twenty years in many different capacities as a paraprofessional, behavior interventionist, teacher, mentor, and now District Coordinator. My family moved to the Four Corners area from Fort Worth, Texas almost two years ago so we could spend our time hiking and exploring the outdoors. We feel fortunate to live in a community that affords us the ability to immerse ourselves in nature.

My primary focus is supporting and encouraging the new staff at Montezuma-Cortez School District RE-1. My role includes onboarding and training new teachers through quality professional development, providing robust continuing education opportunities through the District mini-academies, and assisting staff with the professional licensing process. Please let me know if there is any way I can support you and your students as we move ahead.  Here's to an awesome 2022-2023 school year!
