Ms. Zoe Graflund
Why Hello There!
My name is Miss Zoë and I am a part of the jazzy first grade team! Throughout the year, we share a myriad of spunky experiences to push our learning and minds to the max! When I’m not in school, I enjoy getting outside and camping, backpacking, hiking and exploring nature. I am proud guinea pig parent to Spike and Spud, my precious fuzzy potatoes. While I am originally from the Midwest, I have explored and taught all over the place and I am ecstatic to have landed at Peak Expeditionary with our amazing staff, students and culture.
