For the past fifteen years Falcon has been home for my family and me and I am extremely excited to be the new Principal at Falcon High School. I can’t think of a better honor than being able to have an impact on the lives of the young men and women in my own community. For those who haven’t had the opportunity to meet or get to know me I want to provide a bit of information on my education, professional and personal background.
I began my career in education after completing a Bachelor of Science Degree at Kansas State University in Elementary Education. While at Kansas State University, I participated and lettered in track four years, while also completing six years of service in the Marine Corps Reserves. My work experience includes two years teaching 5th grade at the elementary level, one each in Junction City, Kansas and one in Austin, Texas. In addition to teaching at the elementary level, I spent an additional five years teaching Social Studies at Junction City Junior High School, in Junction City, Kansas. While working in Junction City, I returned to Kansas State and completed a Master’s Degree in School Administration.
I began my administrative career at the elementary and middle school levels in Wichita, Kansas. Since then I have been a middle school principal in Baltimore County, Maryland, and an elementary principal and high school principal.
In addition to my school level experience I have served as an Assistant Director for Human Resources in the Widefield School District, Regional Manager for the Colorado Department of Education and Assistant Commissioner for Turnaround for the Colorado Department of Education. While working at the Colorado Department of Education, I completed my Ph.D. through Capella University. Prior to accepting the position here at Falcon High School, I served as the Operations Manager for Denver Public Schools Career Connect where I managed grants, support building and facility renovations for CTE Programs and supported schools with budgeting and transportation.
I am married to a wonderful and supportive women Jennifer, who is a Principal in the Widefield School District and the proud father of six daughters, Morgan, who is a surgeon, Lauren who is a lawyer, Chelsie who is a teacher, Cassie who is a teacher, Cambria who is a nurse and Graycen who is nine and entering the fourth grade. My dream is to be here and hand Graceyn her diploma when she graduates from Falcon High School.

Welcome to Falcon Elementary School of Technology. I am the new principal at FESoT and I have worked as an administrator for the past ten years. In fact, I worked here at FESoT for two years as an assistant principal and I am excited about returning to our school.
I have lived in Falcon for the past 17 years with my wife, Staci, and our four daughters- Sierra, Ashley, Madison, and Taylor. All of our daughters have attended Falcon area schools and two have graduated from Falcon High School. We enjoy going hiking, going boating, and playing sports as a family.
I earned my Principal Licensure through the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs and an MA in Education from the University of LaVerne. I have had the privilege of working as an English teacher for many years and I have been able to work with students and teachers k-12.
I look forward to meeting you and learning about your student(s), while helping all of us grow during the elementary school experience.
Sincerely,
Ed Kulbacki

Greetings, Meridian Ranch Elementary Families,
My name is Sheehan Freeman-Todd and I am thrilled and honored to serve as the principal of Meridian Ranch Elementary School. I look forward to working with the Meridian Ranch community to ensure students have rich learning experiences.
I am very excited to return to the Falcon Zone in District 49. When we moved to Colorado 13 years ago, I started teaching at Woodmen Hills Elementary. Then I moved to Falcon Middle School and served as an assistant principal. For the past six years, I have been serving as the assistant principal at Discovery Canyon Campus.
To give a little background, my husband and I are both from the Midwest and moved here from Illinois where I started my teaching career specializing in both special education and elementary education. We love living in Colorado and all that the outdoors has to offer.
Meridian Ranch Elementary is a great place for students, staff, parents, and community members. We want everyone to be involved in our school! It is exciting for me to be in such a close-knit community where everyone values the education that we provide our children.
Please do not hesitate to contact my office should you have any questions or concerns. I also welcome you to come in and meet with me at any point so we can work together to take our school to the next level of excellence.

Hello Woodmen Hills Students and Families!
I love being a part of Tornado Nation! I was the Assistant Principal of WHES before becoming the Principal in the 2020-2021 school year. I have greatly valued the partnerships with each of you while serving the learning community as we engage, elevate, and enhance learning and teaching for our students and staff. You will often hear me share that Woodmen Hills Elementary is THE best school on earth. Our students, staff, and families are unlike any other - they genuinely care for one another, they rise above any challenge, and I feel so grateful to spend my days at our big school with a small neighborhood feel. This year is no different as we remain united in one mission - whatever it takes for our kids.
I started my career with Westside Community Schools in Omaha, Nebraska before moving to Colorado. I then taught in Academy District 20 for 11 years before coming to WHES in 2018. During my time at WCS and D20, I taught elementary and middle school Physical Education, Kindergarten, 1st grade, and also spent several years as a Gifted Education Specialist, Response to Intervention Coordinator, Multi-Tiered Systems of Support Leader, and Facilitator of Student Growth.
I am small town Nebraska born and raised. My husband, two daughters, and I have called Falcon home since we moved here in 2007. In my time away from school, you will find our family outside – sometimes at an arena where our girls are horseback showing and racing or at a baseball field somewhere across the nation.
Please reach out if you need anything - we are in this together!
