Hello Mendenhall Family,

My name is Pilar Arora and I am a bilingual teacher at Mendenhall Elementary.

I attended school in Mexico at Instituto Tecnologico y De Estudios Superiores de Monterrey, where I obtained my undergraduate degree in Computer Science. I worked as a systems engineer for 15 years in Mexico City, Kansas City and Dallas. Later, I obtained my Bilingual teaching certification from Region X in 2007.

It has been and is an honor to be part of this wonderful family, where I have been working from the beginning of my career as a teacher. I have enjoyed teaching first grade and second grade. I believe having two languages or more is a gift that I can help students develop and learn. I am very excited about this coming year and I cannot wait to see all the student’s learning and growth for this new school year. Great things are happening here!
