Ms. Huibregtse was born and raised in Madison, Wisconsin. She was the athletic daughter of three, spending her days playing soccer, swimming, and getting sunburnt. Morgan went through a laundry list of career ideas, including lifeguard, Target employee, and lawyer, but couldn’t decide on a major before college.

Morgan attended the University of Wisconsin in pursuit of witnessing a National Championship in football or basketball. Although the title was missed, she chose to double major in Legal Studies and Social Welfare and moved to Oklahoma after graduation to serve in AmeriCorps. She worked in an elementary school and discovered her love for teaching.

This led her to move to Denver to attend DU and receive a Master’s in Curriculum and Instruction. During grad school, she student-taught third grade at Gust Elementary. She taught for six years at Johnson Elementary and two years at Ellis Elementary before moving to McKinley-Thatcher.
