Welcome to Mrs. Rodriguez’s 3rd grade class! This is my second year here at BRES. I am so excited to be part of such an amazing 3rd-grade team!

I received a Bachelor of Applied Science in Management and Supervision Human Resources in 2020 from Northwest Florida State College in Niceville, FL. I began my teaching career as a substitute teacher in 2021, with a DoDEA school in Fort Campbell, KY. I quickly learned that teaching was my passion. I was selected for two long-term substitute teaching positions in 4th and 5th grade that school year. The following school year I worked as a long-term substitute teacher in 5th grade, where I taught for the entirety of the school year. 

My family and I relocated to Colorado Springs in June 2023 from Fort Campbell, KY. I was hired with D49 in July of 2023 as a general education para educator at Bennett Ranch. In March 2023, I took a long-term substitute teaching position in 3rd grade. I am fortunate to have worked in many different roles and classrooms here. It has allowed me to build relationships with students (including many of my incoming ones this school year). I received the Support Star of the Year Award for the 2023-2024 school year. 

I am lucky to have grown up as a military brat and have spent the last 16 years as a military spouse. I have lived in 9 different states (sometimes more than once) and 2 foreign countries in my lifetime. My favorite way to describe my life is by saying I have left my heart in many places. I have a daughter (17) and a son (15). I also have two Catahoula Leopard dogs, Ranger and Liberty. I enjoy teaching, reading, spending time with my family, gardening, kayaking, hiking, camping, traveling, crafting, attending concerts, working out, photography, and party planning. 

I am pleased to work with you and your child to foster a strong relationship. My classroom is a safe space, and I want everyone to feel seen and heard. I look forward to adding you all to my family this school year. The best way to contact me is via email at savanah.rodriguez@CO01900838.schoolwires.net.
