Mrs. Chavez is entering her 12th year of teaching. She has taught 1st grade for 4 years, but has experince in 2nd and 5th grades. Mrs. Chavez is so excited to work with her students this year to help them become better readers, writers, and math experts.

Though teaching is her passion, Mrs. Chavez enjoys spending time away from the classroom with her husband, her son Ethan who will be a third grader at Arabi this year, and her 1 year old daugter, Estella.

Mrs. Chavez is looking forward to an exciting year with her alligators!
