Hi! My name is David Nelson. I am
thrilled to be a third grade teacher here at Vieja Valley! This
is my 24th year teaching second and/or third grade. I taught
for 8 years in Sacramento, and the last 11 years here at Vieja
Valley. I live in Buellton with my wife Rebecca and my children
Richard and Amanda. My family and I love
the wide open spaces of the Santa Ynez Valley, hiking, jogging,
and bicycling. We also love to explore all the beaches of the
central coast. I enjoy teaching third grade because my students
are so eager to learn and explore the world around them. Every
year I learn new things from my students too!
