Mrs. Amy Santos
Hello! I can't wait to meet everyone! Let me tell you a bit about myself. I was born and raised in a tiny town in New Mexico and got my Bachelor's in Education at New Mexico State University. My husband is in the Air Force so I have had the opportunity to teach every grade from 1st through 8th. I have teaching licenses from several states from California to Virginia. Along the way, I earned my Masters in Educational Technology. When we first moved to Northern Virginia I got a job at a software company. While it was very enjoyable, I sure missed all the students. So here I am!
I am so excited to begin my second year at Trailside, teaching Tech Ed to our 7th Graders. I absolutely love being in the classroom learning something new everyday. When I am not at the school, you usually can find me at the soccer fields watching my son's travel team.
In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family, walking my spoiled dog, reading, shopping, photography and traveling to NYC every chance I get.
My challenge this year is to have each student do something to make the world a better place.
