My name is Ms. Hernandez, and this will be my 4th year teaching at LVA! I am looking forward to teaching Slingerland, and 6th grade Math this year!

 

I will also be stepping into my new position this year as LVA’s Academic Director for 1st – 5th grade. I am looking forward to working closely with those teachers to implement the LVA expectations.

​

I grew up and currently live in Tracy, Ca, with my fiancé and 2 dogs! I attended Gavilan Community College for my A.A degree, and then transferred to UC Santa Cruz for my bachelor’s degree. For 11 years, I have worked in Gilroy, Ca, for South County Cal-SOAP and Gilroy Unified School District. There I discovered how much I enjoy working with young people and what it means to teach the WHOLE student.

I am committed to showing students how much I value education.

 

Although I love education, I do have other interests! 

I enjoy attending baseball games, painting, attending concerts, traveling, and spending time with my dogs! My goal is the visit every baseball stadium in the United States! So far, I’ve visited Dodger’s Stadium (my favorite), Giants, A’s, Cubs, White Sox, and Diamondback’s Stadium. I hope to plan some more in the future! For now, I will continue hanging out with my family, dogs, and painting!
