My name is Julie Naski Roman and students call me Mrs. Roman.  This is my 30th year in Denver as a special education teacher! I am very excited to join the Carson team for the 2024-25 school year.  My passion is helping students be confident, lifelong learners.. I was born and raised in Detroit, MI, but have called CO my home since I started working with DPS in 1995. I graduated from University of Detroit Mercy with a B.S. in special education and received my master’s degree in special education from University of CO Denver.   I have 8 yrs as an adjunct professor at DU teaching graduates elementary literacy as well as supporting diverse learners across all content areas.  In the past I have been a LETRS trainer for the state & district.   In addition, I am currently a district instructor for the MLE department.   I remember being a guest speaker at Carson for the D/HH program during my first year; I was invited to speak with the families here as a person who was born deaf in both ears.  I always had a feeling that I would return to Carson in some way.  🙂
My husband, Nick and I have two grown children who have left the coop, but our dog, Luca, keeps us busy.   I look forward to getting to know the Carson community!
