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.

My name is Kieran Mehta, lots of students call me Ms. M, and I am excited to be a part of the Coe community for my fourth year of teaching at Seattle Public Schools.

After growing up in Minnesota, I moved to Seattle for the University of Washington where I completed my Bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood and Family Studies and my Master’s in Teaching. Since then, I have had the opportunity to work in many different elementary schools across Seattle and  I am really excited to grow as a teacher with the Coe community and learn from the very experienced educators at this school.

Outside of school, I love to hang out with my partner, do various outdoor activities like climbing, hiking, and camping, and I love to read and paint.

I have been a part of the Coe community for over 10 years - as a parent, a volunteer, and now as an Instructional Assistant in the Resource Room. I was born and raised on the East coast and received my Bachelor of Arts in English from Boston College. I’ve called Seattle and Queen Anne home since 2003. I have tremendous respect and admiration for the Coe staff and love our amazing students and families. When I’m not at Coe, you can find me at kid activities for my son, Ryan and daughter, Jordan – or, walking my dog, Sailor. I look forward to continuing to give back to Coe, who has given so very much to me and my family over the years.

I am excited to be returning to Coe as a 5th grade teacher and to be a Coe Cougar again! I previously taught 5th grade at Coe as a long-term substitute. I went on to teach 5th grade at Magnolia Elementary. Most recently, I taught 4th grade at Hazel Wolf K-8. I love teaching 5th grade! My strength is building strong relationships with students, and I strive to create a classroom where students feel supported, challenged, and connected. I look forward to working with the staff, students, and families at Coe.

Hi all! My name is Lily Robbins, and I'm so excited to join your community at Coe! I've been teaching in Seattle since 2016 and have taught at a range of schools and a variety of grades (but 4th grade is one of my favorites!). I love to engage students in hands-on projects and to encourage curiosity and a love of learning. Before classroom teaching, I worked in a maker's space and for a renewable energy education company, and I love to bring that background into my work with students. Outside of work, I love to cook, hike, read, and spend time with family and friends!

I have been teaching for many years at Coe Elementary, and I truly feel fortunate to work at this incredibly creative, vibrant, and innovative elementary school.  I love integrating subjects across curriculum and ensuring my students become confident, critical thinkers. I am also a mama with three children, and all three attended Coe Elementary School.  Seattle is a magical place and so is Coe Elementary.

My name is Annika Sgambelluri and I have been teaching Multilingual Learners in Seattle Public Schools since 2011.  I am a native Washingtonian and attended Western Washington University for my undergraduate degree and the University of Washington for my Masters in Teaching.  Prior to teaching, I worked in non-profit administration at the UW.  I love to travel with my family, including my two kids, and learn about all the amazing cultures in the world. I’ve been to over 25 different countries and four continents. When I’m not teaching, you’ll find me planning my next trip, learning Spanish, running around Green Lake, or hiking in our amazing Pacific Northwest mountains.

I am honored to be Coe’s School Counselor. I believe deeply in the power of self-agency and the strength children possess to overcome challenges. When kids recognize the power in their ability to make positive choices, they can unlock the potential to accomplish anything. I approach counseling through a cognitive-behavioral lens, emphasizing that while we can't always control what happens to us, we have the courage and strength to choose how we respond.  Raising a child truly takes a village, and I believe that collaboration among all stakeholders in a child’s life (families, teachers, and the community) is key to fostering an environment where children can thrive. This collaboration and investment needed to support all our learners is evident in the staff and school community here at Coe. Coe Elementary is a special place, and I am grateful to be a part of it.

My experience is deeply rooted in my past upbringing in Seattle, where I developed a strong sense of pride in being a Seattleite. Attending St. John's in Greenwood and high School at O’Dea.  I also earned my MA., Ed. specializing in School Counseling from Seattle University. Every day, I am motivated by the opportunity to support and guide the next generation of thoughtful leaders.
