Hello!  My name is Baltazar "B.J." Flores.  This is my 17th year teaching.  I am returning to Mendenhall Elementary after teaching at the high school level for 9 years.  I am very excited to be back!  

I have a beautiful wife who is an amazing Speech Pathologist, and two awesome children, ages 13 and 10, who both attend Plano ISD schools.  

I grew up in the North Dallas area and graduated from Thomas Jefferson High School in 2001.  In 2007, I graduated from the University of North Texas with a bachelor's degree in Spanish and have been teaching ever since.
