Greetings!! My name is Mayra Ruiz. I have been in the classroom for many years! I have been fortunate to work with students of all grades and ages. My favorite has always been the younger grades. Littles have this contagious energy that brightens my day. I have had extensive training in early childhood education as well as SPED within the six districts I have worked for stateside and DODEA (Department of Defense Education Activity) while living overseas in Japan. My husband served in the US Air Force for 26 years and recently retired. We made Utah our home after many years of moving. We have three sons. One is studying engineering at the University of Alabama, and one is in High School. Our youngest is here at Greenwood.
Setting a strong foundation for your child’s student career is very important to me. Through dedication, perseverance, and fun learning, we will have a wonderful school year!! I look forward to meeting your children and watching them blossom and grow during their Kindergarten year!!
You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.
