Hi there, 
I'm Tarehna Wicker, and I’m thrilled to be the Principal of Bridger Creative Science School (BCSS). When I’m not at school, you’ll likely find me playing drums and singing in a band with my husband, Brandon, and two other 欧美巨乳色情片 teachers. Music is a big part of our lives, and so is gaming—our family, including our two amazing kids, Clara and Luna, loves playing Dungeons & Dragons together and just about any game we can get our hands on.
As someone who is neurodivergent, I’ve always had a deep connection with students who have learning differences. This perspective shapes how I approach education and strengthens my commitment to making sure that every student feels seen, supported, and celebrated. I believe in creating a school environment where all students, regardless of background, can thrive and where equity is at the forefront of everything we do.
Before stepping into the role of Principal, I taught nearly every subject in K-8 schools, which gave me a well-rounded understanding of what our students need to succeed. Now, as an administrator, I’m focused on eliminating the racial predictability of educational and social-emotional outcomes, ensuring that every student feels welcome, happy, and proud of who they are during their time with us.
I’m so excited to be part of the BCSS community, and I look forward to continuing this journey with all of you!
Constructivism is the idea that meaningful knowledge is actively constructed rather than passively absorbed.
In a constructivist classroom, students are asked questions and invited to use what they already know to construct new ideas (creative) then test those ideas in context (science) in order to arrive at answers through experience and critical thinking.
At Bridger Creative Science School, teachers guide students through this practice of inquiry and discovery to promote curiosity, confidence, and connection— toward learning, toward themselves and each other, toward community— so that students may use these tools throughout their education and into adulthood.
