My name is Zoe Geiger and I am a physical therapist (PT) with Seattle Public Schools. As a school-based physical therapist, I work in the special education department across multiple schools, helping students access their school environment and participate in their academic program. I grew up in Seattle and am a proud SPS alum. I received my Bachelors of Science in Kinesiology from Western Washington University in 2015, where I also studied psychology and dance. After a couple years of working, traveling, and volunteering, I moved to Tacoma to continue my formal education and received my Doctorate of Physical Therapy at the University of Puget Sound. Outside of work, I enjoy dancing, traveling, and spending time with my family and friends.

Hello! I am Alexandra Godoy, and I am proud to be a part of Coe’s learning community and incredible first-grade team. I love first graders’ sense of humor, curiosity, and inspiring wonder. In first grade, we learn to decode the English language, allowing us to unlock the joy of reading! Books can be passageways to unknown worlds and help us reveal what we know and love. It is an honor to witness their joyful “aha moments” throughout this early journey into literacy.

I was born in El Salvador, grew up in California, and have lived in beautiful Seattle for ten years, teaching for three. Aside from teaching, I enjoy kayaking, picnicking, hiking, and exploring delicious restaurants with my husband. As a Salvadoran, speaking and reading Spanish has helped me stay connected to all that was left behind. Similarly, our collective history, music, and familial stories have kept me anchored throughout my life. My bilingual experience has been a rich resource in my learning. I strive to engage students with their rich resources to help them develop their creative potential as storytellers and innovators in their communities.

I'm grateful to be part of our wonderful Coe-mmunity! I grew up in the South Puget Sound and received my BA and MAT from the University of Puget Sound in Tacoma, where I also played basketball (go Loggers!) I have spent almost two decades teaching students in grades three through five and have been a member of the Coe team since 2018. Helping students to feel valued, love learning, think critically, and develop their passions makes teaching such a joy for me. When I'm not at school, you can find me outside hiking, mountain biking, wing foiling, or reading a good book. I also love cheering on the Seattle Storm and eating ice cream.

Having taught for over 20 years in San Francisco and Seattle, I am very excited to be part of the 3rd grade team at Coe. I was born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area and moved to Seattle in 2016 with my husband and two boys. I have taught kindergarten, 1st, 2nd and most recently, 3rd grade. I have a Master’s degree in Teaching, with a focus on Environmental Education. I am also a National Board Certified Teacher. When I'm not teaching, I love playing tennis, sewing costumes, and going to the beach with my boys.

I am thrilled to be part of the Coe community! I began teaching in 2021 and have had the opportunity to work at several schools within Seattle Public Schools, most recently at Queen Anne Elementary. Growing up in Seattle and attending SPS from K–12 (Salmon Bay and Nathan Hale), it has always been a dream of mine to return as a teacher.

I earned my BA in Elementary Education with an endorsement in Middle Level Mathematics from Washington State University (double go Cougs!). After completing my student teaching in the unique year of 2020, I went on to earn my M.Ed. in Instructional Design. My passion for teaching is deeply rooted in empowering students to think critically about the world around them.

Outside the classroom, you can usually find me walking my two dogs, playing board games (a little competitively!), reading, camping, golfing with my partner Drew, cheering on Seattle and WSU sports teams, and spending time with family and friends.

For the past eleven years, I’ve had the privilege of serving as Principal at Thurgood Marshall Elementary—a Title I and Highly Capable Pathway school with a beautifully diverse community. Our school included several intensive special education programs, a large multilingual student population, and a thriving HC cohort. Before that, I was Principal and Director of Student Services at the Seattle Hebrew Academy, and I began my career as a school counselor in the Federal Way School District. Each of these roles has shaped my approach as an educator, and I’m excited to bring that experience to Coe as we continue to grow together.

I have been teaching at Coe since 2010. I attended Western Washington University where I studied Special and Elementary Education. I have a Masters in Literacy from SPU. I live in the Broadview neighborhood of Seattle with my husband Conor, daughter Sloane, son Silas, two cats, and a dog. My favorite part about teaching is seeing students set goals and celebrate their success as learners. Outside of school I enjoy cooking, traveling, biking, hiking, and spending time with family and friends.

My name is Steven McGregor and I'm happy to be teaching second grade at Coe!  I am a Northwest native who grew up in Renton, Washington. I attended Western Washington University in Bellingham, where in 1999 I received my B.A. in Political Science, Economics, and Philosophy. After graduating and moving back to Seattle, I worked for several years in non-profit healthcare administration. In 2007, I decided to change course in my career and I enrolled in the master's program at Antioch University. I earned a Master of Education degree in 2008.   Prior to teaching first and second grades at Coe, I taught kindergarten for four years at Schmitz Park in West Seattle. I currently live in Magnolia with my husband and our three Portuguese Water Dogs, Kona, Indie, and London.

I am so happy to be at Coe. I first came to Coe in 2009 when my oldest child was in kindergarten. Since then all three of my children have gone though and graduated from Coe.  While my youngest was at Coe I began working as a tutor and later became an Instructional Assistant. I love working with students in K - 5th grade, and am incredibly lucky to work with an amazing staff and administration here at Coe. I am originally from San Francisco but have lived in Seattle for 16 years and love the Pacific Northwest. When I am not working I love spending time with my family and my two dogs.
