Hi! My name is Veva Casteel. I grew up in Texas and attended the University of Texas at Austin for my bachelor’s and master’s degrees.  Hook ‘Em Horns! My professional career began as a children’s librarian for the Dallas Public Library.  In 2000, in one of the best decisions I’ve ever made, I packed up my belongings and moved to Colorado. I started off my career as school librarian at Cowell Elementary.  In 2005, I had the incredible opportunity to join the team at Lowry Elementary as the school librarian. Loving the students and this school, I transitioned into the classroom as a 4th grade teacher.  In my free time, I love to spend time with my family: my husband Shane, my 11-year-old Zoë, and 9-year-old Sadie. We love to walk, hike, and bike.  We’re all avid readers and fans of family game nights.
