Ms. Amy Cavazos
Hello families! I am thrilled to be a second-generation APS teacher and to be teaching second grade at Claremont Immersion School. My M.Ed. in Curriculum and Instruction is from George Mason University and I have been an instructional assistant in kindergarten and VPI for four years serving in both Fairfax County Public Schools and Arlington Public schools. I have also taught first and second grade in summer school at Glebe, Hoffman-Boston, and Jamestown elementary schools. In my spare time I like to read, exercise, and play the flute.
Srta. Rocío Arébalo
Mi nombre es Rocio Arébalo y soy la profesora de segundo grado. Yo nací en Argentina y mis padres son Bolivianos. He obtenido mi licenciatura y maestría en la universidad Virginia Commonwealth University. Este es mi primer año en la Escuela de Inmersión Claremont y estoy muy contenta de poder formar parte de esta gran comunidad. En mi tiempo libre me gusta escuchar música, caminar con mi perro, y ver películas.
Ms. Caroline Brown
Hola a todos! My name is Caroline Brown and I am thrilled to be joining the second grade team at Claremont Immersion. I’m originally from Winchester, Virginia but spent this past year in Charlottesville at the University of Virginia, where I received my master’s in Teaching English as a Second Language. Previously, I attended William & Mary, where I studied Elementary Education and Hispanic Studies. I’ve always been interested by the Spanish language and language learning in general, which is why I’m so excited to be a part of this community. In my free time, I love being active and spending time with loved ones (including my cat!).
Ms. Iris Martinez
My name is Iris Martinez. I was born in El Salvador but grew up in the DMV area. For my undergraduate education I went to Colgate University. I got my master’s degree from Trinity University. I have taught at Spanish immersion schools all my teaching career. I love the Claremont community! The staff, parents and students are all passionate about learning in two languages.
Sra. Sandra Valentin
Mi nombre es la Sra. Valentin y soy hija de padres Puertorriqueños. Obtengo una maestría en Currículo e Instrucción y créditos aprobados en el programa doctoral. Para mí trabajar en una escuela de inmersión es un privilegio y aprecio ayudar y apoyar a toda la comunidad de Claremont. Aprender más de un idioma en una escuela es la llave del éxito. Durante mi pasatiempo, disfruto hacer actividades acuáticas.
