About Me

Hi! My name is Neana Lueck, and I am incredibly excited to begin my fifth year with the WCA family and my third year as Assistant Principal!

I previously taught middle school English-Language Arts in the DCSD public schools in Parker and have been part of the DCSD family for over a decade. My roots in literacy run deep — I genuinely love the multiple layers of reading and writing, and nothing brings me greater joy than watching a learner light up when something "clicks." That enthusiasm for becoming a confident reader and writer is simply priceless!

In my role as Assistant Principal, I am passionate about coaching teachers, using data to drive meaningful instruction, and building a school culture where every student and staff member feels seen, challenged, and supported. I believe great leadership starts with great listening and that the best schools are built on trust, high expectations, and genuine care for people.

Outside of school, I love traveling and creating memories with my husband. I also stay active at the gym, enjoy reading and writing short stories, and spend time with our two dogs, Lyra and Maizy.

My love for literacy started early — I wrote my first short story in third grade and never looked back! I graduated from Metropolitan State University of Denver with a B.A. in English and a minor in Secondary Education, and earned my M.D.Ed. in Literacy, specializing in Reading and Writing, from the University of Colorado Denver.
