Hello Puma Families! My name is Grace Figueroa-Todd. I am very excited about my first year of teaching in LCPS. I am originally from the Philippines and obtained my Bachelor's degree there.

I worked as a 4th-grade elementary teacher in the Northern Mariana Islands for eight years. In 2014, I moved to Alabama along with my husband, a government employee, where I worked as a preschool teacher. In 2017, we moved to Northern Virginia due to my husband's employment transfer, where I initially worked again as a preschool teacher. I've been employed at Pinebrook Elementary School since August 2019.

I'm passionate about children and learning and couldn't imagine having any other career. I have one daughter, who recently graduated college from Auburn University.

My hobbies include playing golf, cooking, photography, and working out. I also love travelling with my husband.

I'm excited about the upcoming year, this new phase of life, and helping the students achieve their goals. I am looking forward to a great school year.
