Hello!  I'm Erin Christopoulos and this is my 7th year at Kipling Elementary. In my time here I have held a few different roles, beginning as the school's Spanish teacher and then becoming a 2nd-grade teacher.  This year marks my 4th year as the school's RtI Specialist, and I love what I do in this role!  Working as a teacher to support our students but also serving as a resource to my colleagues and our Kipling families is genuinely a wonderful balance. Prior to joining at Kipling I taught 8th grade for four years in Yorkville, IL.  I spent time developing their Spanish and Communications curriculum as well as building their RtI protocols from the ground up.

I presently live in Park Ridge with my husband, Jason; our son, Theo (4); and our daughter, Stella (2).  In my downtime, I enjoy cooking, baking, and traveling.  I also am presently earning my Teacher Leadership administrative certification through National Louis.  It has been a great opportunity to be reflective of my practice as a teacher and how to strengthen my working relationships with administrators, teachers, and families--it is all incredibly applicable to my work at Kipling!
