Mr. Kirby Peterson
Mental Health Professional
Mr. Peterson's office is located on the 2nd floor of the IST, next to room IC217. He works with students from Overland and Prairie.
Kirby has lived in four states in his life, but grew up mostly in North Carolina, which is also where he received his bachelor’s degree in Spanish, with a minor in art. After completing his undergraduate program in North Carolina, he moved to Colorado as an AmeriCorps member, helping increase parent, student, and community engagement in schools. At the conclusion of his service as an AmeriCorps member, he moved to Houston, Texas in pursuit of his Master’s of social work degree. However, he didn’t stay long because he really missed Colorado and the work he was doing here. So in 2018 he moved (for the third time!) back to Colorado. Kirby loves working with families that are new to the country by increasing access to helpful resources and exposing them to new opportunities. Working in such a diverse school as Overland, Kirby also enjoys hearing the unique journeys that have brought families here and the many cultural nuances that they share. When he’s not spending time learning or creating, Kirby likes to travel and hopes to have a chance to visit every Spanish-speaking country at least once in his lifetime!
