Hi! My name is Jackie Pina and this will be my first official year with IA. I am beyond excited to work with 1st grade! I had the opportunity to work with IA during my internship and student teaching requirements. I have a Bachelors in Psychology but after having my two beautiful children I decided to go back to school and work towards a Masters in Elementary Education. I recently graduated ASU with my Masters and am in the process of applying for my CA teaching credential. I am so excited to keep learning from the teachers and students at IA!

In my freetime I enjoy baking and exploring San Diego with my two boys. My favorite hobbies include walking around Disneyland, hiking and Jiu Jitsu. 

I look forward to this upcoming year and working with a great team!
