Hello! My name is Marissa Hampel and I am overjoyed to be teaching at Patriot! I grew up in a military family and moved to Colorado to attend Colorado State University in Fort Collins. I taught in southeastern CO before moving to Colorado Springs and joining the wonderful team at Patriot. When I am not in the classroom, I am spending time with family and friends, reading, crocheting, and enjoying the outdoors. I look forward to another amazing year in third grade!
