My name is Carmen Romero-Ayala, and I teach a wonderful group of fourth graders at Kempton Street Literacy Academy in Spring Valley, California. I am proud to teach in a Dual Language Immersion program where instruction is 50 percent in English and 50 percent in Spanish. Our school is a vibrant community serving children from preschool through fifth grade. The majority of our families are Latino and many face economic challenges, yet they show great determination and resilience. Each day, my students come to school eager to learn, grow, and dream big. I am passionate about creating a classroom where every child feels seen, supported, and inspired. With your support, we can provide books, materials, and opportunities that open doors for our learners to succeed academically and beyond. Thank you for believing in my students and for helping them reach their highest potential.
