Meet the Teachers
Mrs. Patricia Fresquez
Hello! I'm Patty Fresquez, a Special Education teacher here at Greenbrier. My journey to teaching began with a Bachelor's degree in Business Administration, but my true calling led me to earn a Master's in Special Education from Grand Canyon University. I believe every student has the potential to learn and thrive, and I'm dedicated to helping them discover their individual learning paths. My husband, Anthony, and I have two wonderful daughters, Gaby and Brianna, and our furry family members, Presto, Mel, and Oli. When I'm not teaching, you can find me hiking, enjoying a boba with my family, or taking our three pets on a walk.
Mr. Ryan Grozen
Hello,
My name is Ryan Grozen, and I am excited to work with you and your student! I have been teaching at Greenbrier since the 2024-25 school year, and I have prior experience in K-12 special education and K-6 general education classrooms. I have a bachelor's degree in Special & Elementary Education with a Structured English Immersion endorsement from Northern Arizona University. I believe in clear communication and collaboration between everyone who supports a student, and I look forward to seeing your student become independent and successful. In my free time, I enjoy listening to music and spending time with family and friends.

PEER
Miss Dezaray Saucedo
Welcome to the primary PEER program at Greenbrier Elementary. My name is Dezaray Saucedo, and I am honored to serve as your child's teacher. I joined the Greenbrier team during the 2025-2026 school year, bringing with me a Bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education and Early Childhood Special Education from Grand Canyon University. My teaching philosophy is rooted in the belief that every student deserves equitable access to learning and the necessary support to thrive. I view student behavior as a vital form of communication, and I am dedicated to helping students develop positive, effective ways to express their needs and emotions. Building strong, collaborative relationships with families is a cornerstone of my approach, as I believe this partnership is essential to student success. For access to the supply list click here. I look forward to working with your family this year and welcome you to reach out with any questions.

Mrs. Jasi Jaimes Sanchez
Hello Greenbrier Families!
My name is Mrs. Jaimes, and I'm thrilled to be joining the Greenbrier family as the PEER Special Education Teacher for students in grades 4-6.
I have been working in education for 14 years and have spent most of my career supporting students with a wide range of learning, behavioral, and social-emotional needs. Most recently, I taught Special Education at the junior high level, and while I loved working with middle school students, I'm excited to begin this new adventure with our upper elementary Sidewinders.
I believe that every student deserves to feel valued, capable, and successful. My classroom is a place where students are encouraged to take risks, learn from mistakes, celebrate growth, and develop the confidence and independence they need to thrive both in school and beyond. I work hard to build strong relationships with my students while maintaining high expectations because I know they are capable of amazing things.
When I'm not at school, you'll usually find me spending time with my husband and daughter, exploring new places, trying new restaurants, or planning our next family adventure. I'm a huge Disney fan, I firmly believe 90's music was the best era of music, and I'm always happy with a good cup of coffee, a piece of chocolate, or a plate of sushi.
I believe that the best outcomes for students happen when families and educators work together as a team. Open communication, trust, and collaboration are important to me, and I look forward to partnering with you throughout the school year.
Thank you for sharing your child with me. I'm excited to get to know each student, celebrate their successes, and support them as they grow this year.
Warmly,
Mrs. Jasibe Jaimes
