My name is Krishna Nair and I'm so happy to be a part of the Leonetti Elementary community!

I was born and raised in Chicago,  Illinois, and graduated with a bachelor's degree in English,  from the University of Illinois at Chicago.  I moved to Houston in 2007, after getting married.  I then pursued my teaching certification through Texas Teachers, an alternative certification program, and furthered my commitment to the field of education by completing my master's degree at Houston Baptist University. I have worked in education for 12 years, in a variety of roles, including instructional specialist, ESL support, Reading Recovery teacher, and team leader.  In my classroom, I encourage a spirit of collaboration and community, in which all students can learn in an enriching environment.
