GENT E CALP English Coordinator This year is my 4th year teaching 2nd grade at CALP. Before I came to Ensenada I had been teaching for the Long Beach Unified school district, mostly in Avalon, on Catalina Island where I was born and raised. I am a proud alumni of CSU Long Beach, where I got my masters in Education and bachelor’s in sociology. In my experiences, through teaching and having great mentors, reading has captured my heart as an educational tool that brings families together and bridges gaps where there is indifference. This childhood passion of mine has become my professional “soap box”. Personally, I love to travel, usually to warm tropical locations with a beach a stone’s throw away. It has been a pleasure the work with CALP families, students, and staff for the past 3 years and I look forward to many more in the future. e i l y a K s s i M ller i M BE CALP S EP T IEM IEMB B R E 2 0 16 11
