Kim Yeazel
Hello, my name is Kimberly Yeazel and I am thrilled to be a Cub!! I can’t wait to continue this adventure teaching fourth grade at Vassiliadis Elementary School. I am a native Nevadan and a product of the CCSD school system. I am very proud of that fact! I received a Bachelor’s degree from the University of Nevada, Reno in both elementary and special education. I began my teaching career in Reno, Nevada, then taught in Tucson, Arizona, and currently have been teaching in the Clark County School District for 17 years! I have experience teaching 7th grade, 3rd grade, and 4th grade, but 4th has always been my favorite! I love their enthusiasm for learning!! Prior to coming to Vassiliadis I taught 4th grade at Staton Elementary School for 10 years, and I have enjoyed being a part of this amazing Summerlin community!
When I am not at school, I enjoy spending time with my family. I have two beautiful daughters . My oldest daughter, Jordyn graduated from Boise State University and is the marketing director for Paul Mitchell in Boise. Abby is at San Diego State University. They are my pride and joy! In my leisure time I enjoy shopping, concert going, cheering on the Golden Knights, and working out at the gym!
I feel honored to be part of this amazing team of teachers and administrators at Vassiliadis who share the same vision and passion as me! I look forward to a wonderful school year!

Crecia Page
Hi Cubs!
I'm Mrs. Page, and I’m thrilled to be back at Vassiliadis teaching fourth grade! After three wonderful years teaching in Washington, it feels so good to return to the best school around, filled with amazing staff, awesome students, and a truly supportive community.
Before moving, I spent two fantastic years teaching 3rd grade right here at Vassiliadis, and I’m excited to now continue my journey in 4th grade. With experience teaching 1st through 5th grade, I bring a strong understanding of where students are in their learning journey and how to best support their growth. In our classroom, we will value student voice, meaningful work, mutual respect, and high expectations.
I’m also a proud mom of three kids, including a new 1st grader who will be attending Vassiliadis with me this year. My husband is a Battalion Chief with the Clark County Fire Department, and as a family, we stay busy. You can usually find us cheering by a wrestling mat or spending time in the arena with our daughter’s horse, Thomas.
Before becoming a teacher, I earned a Bachelor of Arts in Journalism and Media Studies and spent many years working as a photographer, shooting weddings, portraits, and working with agencies in Portland, Oregon. In 2021, I earned my M.Ed. in Curriculum and Instruction at UNLV and continue growing professionally.
Outside of school, life is full of adventure, whether it is caring for our little farm with pigs, goats, and chickens, chasing after our kids, or exploring the great outdoors. I am so happy to be back at Vassiliadis and truly look forward to a fantastic year of fun, growth, and learning together!

Lindsay Ortiz
Hello, Cub families! I am Lindsay Ortiz and am so excited to start this school year in 4th grade again! I was born and raised here in Las Vegas, Nevada. GO KNIGHTS GO! I achieved a Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education from UNLV in 2010 and my Master’s Degree in Curriculum and Instruction with a focus on Reading Instruction in 2015 from GCU. I taught fourth and fifth grade until 2016, when I left the classroom for a little bit to stay home with my children before they started school here themselves. In 2022, I joined the Cubs family as the Computer Science teacher before coming back to fourth grade in 2023!
I have been married for almost fifteen years to my husband, Roger. In the fall of 2024, my son, Hunter, will be in fifth grade and my daughter, Dylan, will be in third grade here. When I am not at a cheer event for my daughter or a football game for my son, I enjoy shopping, traveling, and spending quality time with my family and friends!
My teaching philosophy is rooted in the belief that every student has unique strengths, challenges, and potential. It is my responsibility to create a safe, supportive, and intellectually stimulating environment that fosters critical thinking, creativity, and lifelong learning. I am thrilled to be back teaching fourth grade and even more excited to be doing it at this amazing school with your amazing students!

Scott Cesarone
Hi Cub families and students! I'm Mr. Cesarone and I am excited to teach 4th grade this year at Vassiliadis. First, let me tell you a little bit about myself. This will be my 13th year teaching in the Clark County School District and my 9thyear in 4th grade. I was born and raised in Michigan, where I received my Bachelors Degree from Oakland University in 2013. My wife Elena and I have three wonderful children, Victoria, Luca and Emma. When I am not in the classroom, I enjoy hiking, camping, traveling, golfing and spending time with my family. I am an avid sports fan (GO KNIGHTS!) and love bringing that friendly competition into the classroom.
Teaching has always been a passion of mine and I enjoy seeing my students grow academically, as well as socially. In my classroom, you may or may not find me standing on chairs/tables to grab my classroom's attention. I encourage my students to have their voices be heard and to be supportive of one another. I am committed to helping each one of my students love, respect and appreciate the concepts being taught. I always will try to apply real world situations and applications to whatever content there is. I believe that this is all crucial for student success. With commitment, dedication and some fun, this upcoming school year will be a successful one!

Cierra Ritter
Hello Cubs! I'm Ms. Ritter! I was born and raised in the vibrant city of Las Vegas, I earned my bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education from UNLV—Go Rebels! I’ve had the joy of teaching 4th grade for six incredible years and have been working with children for over a decade. My journey into education began in high school while working for a child development program with a soccer twist, and I've never looked back!
A few fun facts about me: I'm a huge sports fan! I love watching all sorts of games, from soccer and football to basketball and tennis—the list goes on! When I'm not cheering on my favorite teams, you’ll find me enjoying the great outdoors, whether it’s playing soccer, challenging friends to pickleball, hiking scenic trails, or hitting the slopes for some snowboarding fun.
Teaching fills my heart with happiness, and nothing compares to witnessing my students thrive in the classroom. My mission is to make learning both fun and challenging. I also believe in the power of a safe, supportive space, which is why I prioritize social emotional learning. I strive to weave emotional intelligence into our curriculum because, as Aristotle wisely said, “Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all.” With that being said, I am super excited for another amazing year with the best 4th grade team and community at Vassiliadis! Let’s make this year unforgettable! Go Cubs!

Reina Douville
Hello, friends! My name is Ms. Douville. I was born in Las Vegas, and had the privilege of growing up as a military kid. I’ve shopped in South Korean markets, swam in the Pacific Ocean, and eaten too much pasta in the capital of Italia. Traveling brings me joy, but it is great to be back in my hometown getting to do what I love most - teaching kids!
I received my Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. I’m excited to dive into my fifth year of teaching, especially with the best 4th grade team in Las Vegas. I excel at using positive reinforcement teaching techniques that encourage students’ educational and personal growth. I’m flexible, but I also believe children feel more comfortable with routine and structure.
When I’m not at school, I enjoy reading, exercising, watching movies, and traveling with my friends. My favorite Disney movie is The Little Mermaid, I love the color green, and you can always catch me with a cup of tea in my hand. I am very much looking forward to a phenomenal school year, and getting to know each and every one of my Vassiliadis Cubs.
