In her own words…
“Growing
up in the same neighborhood as my students, teaching in the school where I went
as a child has given me the greater satisfaction. Knowing that I can make a
difference in a child’s life by simply sharing my story, that if I lived
similar difficulties that they face today they too can look forward to a
brighter future. There is no greater reward than that.”
In the words of
others . . .
“Ms.
Galeana is a kindergarten teacher that I have had the opportunity to work with

She is searching for different methods to bring out the best in best in
each child she serves.”
