Miss Roxy<\/h4>\n

Mountain Room – Lead Teacher – Montessori Certified<\/h4>\n

Hi there! My name is Roxanna Clementi Ruiz, but around the classroom everyone knows me as\u00a0Miss Roxy!<\/b><\/p>\n

I am so grateful to be part of the Mountain Room and this wonderful school community. With over 10 years of experience in early childhood education, I truly feel lucky to spend my days learning, laughing, and growing alongside young children.<\/p>\n

I have a degree in Dance and Child Development and am Montessori certified through Montessori Hills Academy TCP in San Diego, California. Ever since I was in high school, I knew that working with children was what I wanted to do. Teaching isn\u2019t just my job\u2014it\u2019s something I genuinely love.<\/p>\n

Over the past year, I have had the joy of building relationships with our families and watching so many children grow in confidence, independence, kindness, and curiosity. One of my favorite things about being a teacher is seeing those \u201cI did it!\u201d moments and helping children discover what makes them unique.<\/p>\n

Outside of school, I teach children\u2019s Latin dance classes, play soccer, and enjoy bringing music, movement, and creativity into the classroom whenever I can. I believe children learn best when they feel loved, supported, and excited to explore the world around them.<\/p>\n

Thank you for sharing your amazing children with us. It is truly a privilege to be part of their journey, and I look forward to another wonderful year together in the Mountain Room!<\/p>\n

Miss Chloe<\/h4>\n

Mountain Room – Co-Lead Teacher<\/h4>\n

I was born and raised in San Diego and moved to Seattle in 2019. Before teaching, I worked with children as a nanny for almost 10 years.<\/p>\n

Before coming to Seattle, I graduated with my AA in English\/Child Development and also attended Purdue University to receive my BS in ABA therapy.<\/p>\n

I feel so lucky that I get to help each child grow and flourish independently. Little ones offer such a new perspective on daily tasks, so I also value learning from them\/seeing the way they tackle an important obstacle.<\/p>\n

In my free time, I love to be outside in the sun reading a good book, hanging out with my pup Lennon, eating yummy foods, going to farmers markets.<\/p>\n

Miss Irene<\/h4>\n

Mountain Room – Co-Lead Teacher- Montessori Certified<\/h4>\n

Hello! My name is Irene, and I am so excited to be joining the Mountain Room this year. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education and have recently earned my Montessori Certificate through the Montessori Teacher Preparation of Washington. As part of my coursework, I completed my internship at Creative Learning Center, and I am thrilled to continue my Montessori journey with the CLC community.<\/p>\n

I bring a year of hands-on Montessori classroom experience, where I provided individualized lessons, led engaging circle times, and collaborated closely with my teaching team to create a positive, nurturing learning environment. Before moving to the U.S., I also taught in Spain, which helped me develop a deep appreciation for inclusive and culturally rich education. I look forward to getting to know the children and families in the Mountain Room and supporting each child\u2019s growth and love of learning.<\/p>\n
