Ms. Melissa
Hey all! My name’s Melissa Castillo and I’m originally from Dallas, TX but came to ATX for school. I just graduated from The University of Texas at Austin this past school year with a B.S. in Youth and Community Studies and a minor in Social Work. I have been at SDDS since January 2020 but have been working with this age group for the past 5 years. Outside of the classroom I enjoy crafting things such as blankets and earrings, you can always catch me overwatering my plants, and cuddling up with my cat Mateo!! I'm so thrilled to be a part of this school year with your children and I can’t wait to watch your children thrive and grow!
Mrs. Arielle
Hello everyone! My name is Arielle Lutfak, and I have been a part of the St. David’s teaching team since the fall of 2019. I graduated from the University of Texas with a B.S.A in Human Development and Family Sciences and a minor in English. My time at St. David’s has helped fan into a flame the passion I have for teaching, molding, and nurturing the minds of young children! When I am not teaching, I enjoy reading, spending time at church, and traveling. I also got married this past summer and love spending time with my husband! I am so eager to teach your children this year, and I can’t wait to watch them develop and grow into their personalities!
