Hi there! 
     My name is Karla Cruz and I have been at Skyview since 2013. I started as a teachers aide in multiple classrooms K-8 which has given me the opportunity to experience working with students of all ages.
     Growing up I knew I always wanted to be a teacher. Coming from a family of immigrants, I knew that this was a dream that was not going to be easy. My family and I moved to US in 2001. I spent 6 years in English Language Learners program. With the support of my family, I was able to test out of the program and take normal classes in high school. 
      In 2017 I graduated with my bachelors degree in elementary education. I then became the 5th and 6th grade teacher for 2 years. After my second year of teaching, I decided to take a step back and venture the world. I moved the to Big Island of Hawaii for a year and disconnected from reality until the pandemic hit. As I saw educators all over the country struggle during this time, I knew it was time to get back in the classroom. I have always been passionate about teaching, but knowing that I could continue impact lives during difficult times motivated me even more.

 Hi there, I’m Michelle Grubert, and I am incredibly honored to be a part of the middle school team at Skyview.  My three daughters eagerly joined the Skyview community after our family moved to Prescott from California in 2015.  Now it’s my turn!  I love witnessing bright, creative students learning, making connections, working together, sharing their gifts, and expressing themselves.  I am also blessed by the community of teachers and staff at Skyview whose love, passion, and creativity make for a remarkable learning environment.  I have taught young people from Kindergarten through 12th grade, primarily as a music and drama teacher, and I’ve performed and directed for 25 years.  My passion is to infuse the performing arts into other curricular areas such as English and history so as to deepen learning and promote vibrant student engagement.

Hello, my name is Angela Heitzman.
     I was born and raised in Portland, Oregon and married my high school sweetheart in 1997. After finishing my bachelor’s degree in elementary education at Eastern Oregon University, we moved to Tucson where I taught first grade. After our first child was born, I left teaching to stay home with my children and earn a master’s degree in early literacy from the University of Arizona.
     I have volunteered and worked part-time in elementary schools for several years. Following a few cross-country moves, we left upstate New York in 2014 to settle in Prescott. Before joining the Skyview community in 2020, I worked with preschool children at the Family Enrichment Center at Yavapai College.
     I am so grateful for the welcoming atmosphere at Skyview, and look forward to many more years here!

Thank you to our 2022 Sponsors!
