My name is Courtney Behn, and I am so excited to be a part of the Falcon Homeschool Enrichment Program family this year! My husband is currently stationed at Peterson AFB in the Springs, and we moved here last year. We absolutely love all that Colorado has to offer - mountain biking, hiking with our dog, camping, & skiing/snowboarding are just some of our favorite activities! I also really enjoy reading, yoga, and running - I have completed 2 half marathons and ready to try and complete a full marathon next year! I am originally from Georgia, and this is where I got both of my degrees in Early Childhood Education. I attended Georgia College and State University for my undergraduate degree, and The University of Georgia for my graduate degree- GO DAWGS!  I have taught a wide-range of grades and subject areas. I started out as a Pre-K Assistant Teacher, then moved on to a K-5 Talented and Gifted Teacher, then a 1st Grade Teacher, and most recently, a K-5 Technology Teacher. While teaching technology, I mostly focused on teaching coding and it became a new passion for me. I love that coding requires students to be problem solvers, which is why I am so excited to be teaching STEM this year at FHP. We will be working hands on with robotics, completing engineering challenges and projects, doing energy and electricity small group challenges and electricity, and exploring natural disasters and creating solutions.
