Staff Spotlight
Introducing Ms. Martha Garza - The Otter
Meet our exceptional 4th grade teacher with 13 years of experience, a bachelor's in Spanish, and a master's in school counseling. Originally from the valley and proud to be an "RGV girl," she's been inspiring young minds in San Antonio for 14 years. Her 3rd grade teacher's honesty, patience and care sparked her passion for teaching.
Beyond teaching she's a devoted mother of three. Her rejuvenating hobby? Shopping! Her musical favorites include Grupo Frontera and Bad Bunny, and Pluckers is her go-to restaurant.
A breast cancer survivor, her strength and positivity continue to inspire us all as she approaches her 5 year milestone this October.
Fun Fact - She's petitioning for a Pluckers to be built near her
