¡Bienvenidos a la clase de

Sr H.!
Who is Sr. H.?

íHola! I will be your child’s teacher for the 2023-2024 school year!

For those that have never met me, I have been speaking, learning, and practicing Spanish since I was a
kindergartner attending a Montessori school in Mexico. I have had wonderful opportunities to travel to
Guadalajara, Barcelona, Honduras, Ireland, Scotland and the Dominican Republic. I enjoy traveling (when I can
find the time), and hope that my travel experiences will benefit my classroom and enhance the 2nd grade
curriculum. I appreciate your enthusiasm and support for a school like Ada Vista, where we try so
hard to prepare children for life in our global society.

I am also a proud father of a 5 year old boy, Ezra and 8 month old boy, Adler. We celebrated Exra’s
birthday on July 4th. He is certainly a little firecracker let me tell you. As a new parent, I am a firm believer that
family comes first. As such I love to spend as much time with them as I can.

Open House: Thursday, August 17th, 3:30-5:30, The Studio. We will be in that space until April 2024 until our new
room is complete at which time we will move back into our permanent space.

Finally, Feel free to bring in any supplies for their plastic bins and to look around the room and introduce, or
re-introduce yourselves to me if I’ve had a sibling in the past.
