Cindy Walsworth

Cindy Walsworth, Librarian I have a B.A. in English and secondary teaching certificate from Western Michigan University. I have a Montessori primary certificate from the National Center for Montessori Education and St. Mary's College in Kansas City. I also have Child Care Director Certification from the state of Colorado. I have worked for Douglas County Schools for nineteen years, the past 10 as the librarian at DCS Montessori School. My husband and I live in Castle Rock and enjoy playing tennis and golf and traveling. We have a son and a daughter who are grown and married and they have blessed us with three grandchildren that we love to spoil. I like to work in the garden and belong to a great book club; of course I love to read! As librarian I strive to make our library welcoming and warm. I want it to be a place students feel comfortable in and are able to find the books they need with ease.

Sheila Wolfe

Montessori Curriculum Director

My name is Sheila Wolfe. My family moved to Littleton when I was four years old. I still live there with my husband, Thomas Wolfe (no, not the famous author), and our two cats.

Following high school, I attended Arapahoe Community College. I majored in Early Childhood Education and became Director Qualified, according to the Colorado Department of Human Services. Many years later, I went back to school to earn my B.A. with a Colorado Teaching Certification from Regis University. I graduated with a GPA of 3.96, Summa Cum Laude. I am a member of Alpha Sigma Nu, the Jesuit Honors Society. In 2006, I received a Master’s Degree in Education, with a certification in Educational Leadership from Regis, with High Honors and a GPA of 3.95.

I have two Montessori certifications, both from the Montessori Education Center of the Rockies, in Boulder, Colorado. I hold a Primary Certification (ages 3-6), and one in Lower Elementary (ages 6-9).

I began my teaching career as an assistant, teacher, and director in child care centers. I have been a Montessori teacher since 1992. It is my passion in life. 2005 was my first year at DCS Montessori School. I am honored to be a part of this community of children, parents, teachers, and faculty.
