Hello Everyone! I am Allison Nelson and I will be your first grade teacher for the 2020-2021 school year. I am so excited to meet each of you and your families! This is my seventh year of teaching and I have taught here at PRIDE for all of them! I graduated from Western Governor's University with my Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education and I recently earned my Master's Degree in Technology and Design!
I live here in Santee with my husband Bryce, my two stepdaughters Riley (14) and Lexi (12), and my youngest daughter Zoe (3). We have a dog named Bolt, a fish named Rio, and two birds. Riley is a sophomore at West Hills High School, Lexi is in 7th grade at Carlton Hills. Riley plays soccer for Sporting SD and Lexi plays soccer for United. My husband and I LOVE to workout. We have been CrossFitting for several years. I also love walking and hiking! When we are not living in a pandemic, my family loves to go to everywhere!
