Twin Peaks Classical Academy - "A Classical School"

Let's give a big Timberwolf welcome to Wendy Hunt, new 1st grade teacher!

My name is Wendy Hunt, and I have been teaching classical education for eight years. I have a passion for literacy and science, and love reading stories aloud. My favorite book is Charlotte’s Web. Outside of school, I am an avid baker of all things sourdough, and I love all things crafty (knitting, sewing, and watercolor painting). I also love the great outdoors and enjoy paddle boarding and hiking in our beautiful mountains and trails. I live in Erie with my husband, Joshua, our children, Samuel and Elijah, and our dog Pippin.

We are happy to have Ali Grayson as addition to our Preschool Team! A proud Colorado native, Ali Grayson earned her degree in Human Development and Family Studies from CSU before heading to the mountains of Winter Park. There, she spent her time skiing, biking, rock climbing, making music and married her college sweetheart. After ten adventurous years, the couple settled in Boulder, where they’ve raised three energetic boys, all now proud Twin Peaks students. Passionate about nurturing others, Ali is excited to bring her heart for connection and growth to the Twin Peaks Preschool team this Fall.
Welcome, Ali!

We'd like to issue a big Timberwolf welcome to Mr. Evan Beamis! We are thrilled to have him back on our team as our facilities manager.

Hello everyone, I'm Evan Beamis, and I am the new Facilities Manager here at Twin Peaks Classical Academy. I am so excited to be an official member of the faculty here. I am a sixth generation Colorado native, graduate of Arvada West High School, and an Army veteran. I first learned about TPCA through my previous job as a security contractor. Even after my first few days here on campus, I knew this was a special place, and that I wanted to be a part of this community. When the opportunity presented itself to be a full time member of the staff here, I jumped at the chance! I am so excited to see where this opportunity leads, and am proud to be a Timberwolf!

We are happy to introduce you to our new 5th grade teacher, Holly Marshall! Hello Everyone! I am so excited to become apart of the TPCA community! I am looking forward to meeting you and your child and to be their 5th grade teacher this year. This is my eighth year teaching have been teaching. I have graduated from UNC for both my undergraduate and master’s degrees. I am a Colorado Native who loves to go on a walk, run, boating, or snowboard down a mountain. I am also all about family. I have a wonderful husband, an almost three year old, a 3 month old, and a fur baby named Abbey. When I’m not playing outside, I enjoy reading, going to the movies, and traveling. For those who know me best, describe me as a Disney and Potterhead geek. Let’s have a wonderful year! Welcome Holly!

Let the summer adventures begin! Our very own Ms. Mahoney had the adventure of a lifetime already this break! Here's what she's been up to! I had the opportunity to perform with the Longmont Concert Band at Carnegie Hall over Memorial Day weekend. Manhattan Concert Productions saw a live stream concert of the group last year and invited us to be part of their Debut Series at Carnegie Hall. It was such an honor to be able to play on such a world renowned stage.

Monday is the last day for Lost and Found items to be claimed! All items are in the Elementary lobby.

Today we celebrate our Seniors at the Luncheon, the Senior Walk-through, and the Senior Awards Assembly. We are so proud of you!!----and we look forward to today's celebrations as well as Saturday's Graduation! Go Timberwolves!

Your TPCA Board of Directors would like to celebrate some of the successes of our school due in large part to our former executive Director, Joe Mehsling. Thanks to his steadfast and tireless work, we have seen steady increases in both school growth and school performance over the last nine years. Joe benefitted Twin Peaks in so many ways while also providing sound fiscal management, proactively leading the school in accordance with our Vision, and training his successor, Alycia Burns. Joe’s legacy will be lasting. The Board is immensely grateful for his devotion to our school, and we wish him well in his retirement.
