ABOUT OUR TEACHERS

Back

Hi!

I am Jessica Mena

Pre-K 3A Teacher

I am from Miami, Florida

I've been working at OLOL since August 2023

About Myself

I have always wanted to be a teacher and I am so happy to get to fulfill my childhood dream everyday at work!

I was in 2nd grade and I loved to play teacher with my friends and my siblings!

I had a teacher in High School that although she was very tough, she also showed me how to be a great teacher while also having empathy and love for her students. She demonstrated that children learn best when they feel loved for and safe.

I was a cheerleader in high school. I love to sing and dance!

Outside of Jaguars

My family and I love to spend time together and we try to have family movie night every Friday.

I love Thanksgiving and Christmas!

I have 3 dogs! Pixie, a 14 year old Yorkie. Max, a 2 year old Maltipoo. And Apollo, a 3 month old Goldendoodle.

I like to walk by my lake and go workout with my best friend!

Jaguar Memories

  • On my very first day at OLOL I got locked out of the building and Horacio had to save me. I still don’t always take my keys with me, you think I would have learned.
  • I love seeing previous students outside of school and seeing their faces light up when they talk about the memories they have from being my student.
  • My favorite projects are the ones I send home to create with the whole family. I love receiving their family pictures with the craft we sent home. It warms my heart seeing how much fun they had doing it together.
