Molly De Peña, Grades 7-8
Molly De Peña joined our team in the 2021-2022 school year to teach Junior High. Mrs. De Peña has taught 5th, 6th, and 7th grade, and has a degree in Elementary Education from Andrews University with additional training in curriculum and instruction from Concordia University.
Mrs. De Peña became a teacher because she loves to share what she knows with others. She is looking forward to ministering to her students and helping them discover their potential.
In her class, students will practice various forms of servant leadership skills such as performing stories through puppetry and sponsoring a student overseas in Adventist Education. Students will also learn important skills in creative ways, such as writing an “All About Me” research paper. We are glad Mrs. De Peña has joined our team!
