Miss Romo

3rd Grade Dual Language Teacher

Hello! My name is Ms. Romo and I am thrilled to be a part of Manuel Jara Elementary as a first-year teacher. It's an honor to have completed my student teaching right here, which has given me a deep understanding of the school's values and community. When I'm not in the classroom, I love spending quality time with my family and my adorable dog Bonnie.

My ultimate goal is to witness the growth and success of students. I am genuinely excited to see each one of them flourish throughout the year. Together, we will embark on a journey of learning, exploration, and personal development. Let's make this year a memorable one filled with achievements and accomplishments!
