Hello, my name is Jackie Trejo and I am very excited to be teaching Kindergarten this year at Mendenhall Elementary.  I am very proud to say I am a Plano product myself!  I attended Plano ISD schools and graduated from Plano East (go Panthers)! I am a graduate of The University of North Texas with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Speech-Language Pathology.  I provided therapy to children for several years and loved it!  That is the reason I decided to pursue an Alternative Certification in Education.Having been a Plano ISD substitute for several years was a great way for me to learn from different teachers teaching at different schools.  I held several long-term jobs and gained lots of valuable experience by doing this. I am extremely passionate about what I do, excited to get to know the wonderful kindergarten students and grateful to be in the district! I am Plano ISD proud!
