Fourth Grade

I am Mrs. Conn. I have been a member of the Legacy Point community since 2008. Prior to teaching at Legacy Point, I taught in Colorado, Washington, and California. This is the third decade of my teaching journey. Over the course of my career, I have taught pre-school, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th grades, and college courses at Regis University. I also enjoy hosting high-school and college students who are working on earning a teaching degree in our room. I am excited to teach fourth grade again this year. I find fourth grade to be a magical learning year. The students’ enthusiasm is refreshing and I am so excited to work with creative, capable, and amazing thinkers.

My name is Kaitlyn DeCristino. This will be my ninth year teaching and my third year at Legacy Point. I’m thrilled to be part of the Legacy Point family again and look forward to a fantastic year ahead!

I relocated from Bakersfield, California to Castle Rock, Colorado with my family in 2005, where I spent my formative years and graduated from Douglas County High School in 2012. Following this, I earned my Bachelor's degree from the University of Colorado, Boulder in 2017 and later completed my Master's degree at the University of Colorado, Denver in 2018. Currently, I live in Elizabeth with my husband, KJ, our sons, Kaisen (5.5) and Karson (3), and our dog, Russell. Outside of teaching, I enjoy being outdoors, DIY projects, spending time with loved ones, and supporting both the Colorado Buffaloes and the Seattle Seahawks.
