Welcome to 3rd grade!
Hello Centennial community! I am so thrilled and honored to be part of this amazing school and community. I was born in Brazil and I moved to the USA 18 years ago. I’ve been teaching and working in education for 36 years now in various positions. I’ve worked as an elementary teacher, middle school teacher, principal, and university professor. I have been teaching in our district for 18 years and this is my fourth year at Centennial. I speak four languages and I have a master’s degree in Linguistically Diverse Learners. I love to travel around the world with my husband in order to learn about different cultures. I also love to spend time with my grandson and my granddaughter. I look forward to working with our 3rd grade community this year. I can’t wait to get to know you, and learn with all of you.
