See What Kids Are Saying About Miss Tonya

I Discovered the Magic of Reading and Writing With Miss Tonya in Preschool

Take a look at this inspiring testimonial from one of Miss Tonya’s former students, now a proud high school graduate and certified in dual language.

As parents and educators, this is what we strive for: to nurture confident, capable learners from the very beginning and equip them with the tools they need to thrive.

When we see every child as the gifted individual they truly are, everything begins to shift, especially in New Mexico, where early recognition can help transform our future and improve our national education ranking.

"When we empower adults with the right tools, we create confident kids - and confident kids change the world"

While she was playing, she was also learning. She says that Tonya is a wonderful teacher who cares about her students in all aspects. She is very happy with what her daughter learned in preschool.
