Welsome to Pearson! My name is Samantha Castillo and I will be your child's teacher this year. This will be my second year at Pearson, but I have been working in the education field for 17 years. My journey in education is fueled by a passion for early childhood development and a commitment to creating a nurturing learning environment. I am lucky to work alongside a talented team to shape the minds of our youngest learners, fostering curiosity and a love of learning that I hope will stay with them throughout their educational journey. Every day is a new adventure, filled with the joy and challenges of teaching, and I am grateful for the opportunity to make a positive impact in the lives of my students.
