My name is Christie Nelson, I am the first  grade teacher at Ashland Elementary.  I have been teaching first through fifth grade for 27 years.  I enjoy encouraging students to be confident in their work and leaders in everything they do!  

As your child's teacher, I am available to provide answers to questions related to his/her education.  I also believe that parents are a crucial part of their child's learning.  I would love to maintain contact with you throughout the school year.
