portions of the STAAR and EOC assessment less threatening.

perfect score.

Goose Creek ISD her
home and her alma
mater – that was where
she started her career
in education. Trained

was her calling and her mission. Natalia has

teachers as an ELA and Social Studies

Bilingual program specialist for GCCISD.
She currently pursues her passion for
linguistics and education as an educational
