The New School Year Begins on July 19

Welcome to our newest staff members!

Giulia Longo, 4th grade teacher:  Ms. Longo is starting her fifth year of teaching and her fourth year of teaching 4th grade. Her parents are from Parma, Italy and Ms. Longo goes back every summer to visit family. She speaks Italian fluently. In her spare time, Giulia likes to read, travel, and cook.

Cinthya Hernandez, School Psychologist:  Ms. Hernandez is super excited to be a part of the Juarez-Lincoln Family! She is an Aztec for Life (completed both undergrad and graduate studies at San Diego State University). During her 4-year School Psych program, she had the opportunity to have work with amazing teams in three school districts. She is the oldest of 5, was born in Guadalajara Mexico, recently got engaged (wedding date TBD ;D ), loves being outdoors and enjoys nature, and has a crazy dog that likes to chew on couches for fun.

Sydney Masterson, 2nd grade teacher:  Mrs. Masterson has been teaching for over 12 years and is thrilled to join the Juarez-Lincoln community.  When she’s not at work, she keeps busy by shuffling her three kids (ages 8, 4 and 2) around to the zoo, Legoland or the beach.

Melissa Calderon, kindergarten teacher:  This is Ms. Calderon’s second year of teaching, and is her first year teaching kindergarten! Prior to becoming a teacher she was an instructional assistant in a kindergarten class and loved being in the classroom. In her free time she enjoys running, reading, and baking. She’s really looking forward to this school year and joining the Juarez-Lincoln community.
