Hi there! My name is Brooke Hall, and I am a proud member of the third-grade team. This is my eighth year teaching and my sixth year teaching at Cottonwood Creek. Before moving to third grade, I taught fourth grade for three years. I also completed my student teaching here at Cottonwood in 2016. I live in Castle Rock with my husband, daughter (Brynlee), and two cats (Aspen and Annie). When I’m not in the classroom, you can find me spending time with my family and friends, camping, going to the movies, cooking, or reading. I am so grateful and honored to be part of the cougar family!

My name is Lisa Incitti (sounds like in-chee-tee). This is my 20th year of teaching and my 10th year at Cottonwood Creek. My teaching experience includes 4th grade, special education, substitute teaching, literacy intervention, and 3rd grade. I earned my undergrad degree in Elementary Education from Creighton University. Later, I earned my Master’s degree in Special Education from the University of Northern Colorado. My husband and I have two teenagers who keep us busy with their sports and activities. We also have a puggle named Harley. We enjoy traveling together and going to sporting events. I am so happy to be a part of the amazing community of Cottonwood Creek!

Hi! My name is Dana Ricketts. I am so excited to teach third grade at Cottonwood this year. This will be my second year as a teacher at Cottonwood. I have been a teacher in the Cherry Creek School District for 21 years. I have spent a ton of time in primary classrooms as both a classroom teacher and as a literacy specialist. I am a Colorado native and graduated from the University of Colorado-Boulder with a B.A. in Political Science and an M.A. in Elementary Curriculum and Instruction. (Go Buffs!) I am married and have two daughters, Macy and Emma, who will both be at Cherry Creek High School this year (Go Bruins!) They are both proud Cottonwood graduates. When you can't find me in the classroom you will likely find me cheering on the sidelines of a volleyball court or golf course, reading, skiing or enjoying the Colorado outdoors with our labradoodles, Albert and Lola.

I am very excited to get to share in the third grade experience with a great group of third graders. I look forward to getting to know each of them and their families.
