Hello my name is Allison Zilinek and I am a founding teacher of Tice Creek.  Prior to helping open Tice Creek in 2015, I taught Kindergarten at Murwood Elementary.  I graduated from University of Colorado and later got my teaching credential from St. Mary's College.  I am passionate about teaching and love to cultivate an environment where students are encouraged to take risks, feel supported by one another and become life long learners.
