Itzel Delgado

Apprentice Lead Educator - Older Preschool

Hi there, I’m Itzel Delgado. I will be the apprentice lead teacher this year for older preschool. This is my third year at DCP. In my first year at DCP I was a floater Monday and Tuesday, and an Associate in the 3-day Toddler Room. This is my second year as an Apprentice Lead Educator in Older Preschool. I’m so excited to be working with Julie and Kashefa again this year. I am looking forward to our OP adventures and getting to know all of you!

I was born in Chihuahua Mexico and then moved to Minturn Colorado for 18 years. I moved to Denver in October 2022, with my husband Zeke. We have two cats named Eazy and Kiwi. I’m finishing my Bachelor's Degree in Early Childhood Education at Colorado Mountain College. I am fluent in English and Spanish.

My education goal is that every student is unique and must have a welcoming educational environment where they can grow physically, mentally, emotionally, and socially. I desire to create the type of classroom where students can have their full potential. I will provide a safe environment where students share their ideas and take risks. I believe we live in a diverse community where every child and family feels supported and has a safe space.
