Hello Lions!!

My name is Mary Beth Bajikar and I am honored to be a part of your child's educational journey! This will be my 14th year teaching and my first at Leonetti. We are going to have an amazing year together growing and learning academially and socially. I love teaching kindergarten and fostering a love for learning that sets students up for future success. We are going to have the best year! 

I was born and raised in Virginia. I attended the University of Virginia and received my degree in Early Childhood Education. I am married and have two kids. Parker is 7 and will be in second grade and loves dancing. Paxton is 4 and his favorite things are dinosaurs and Legos. We moved to Texas 5 years ago and love being a part of this special community. When I am not at school, I can be found spending time with my family doing puzzles, playing games, watching movies, and going on hikes. 

I am looking forward to a wonderful year filled with fun and learning.  Leonetti Elementary is the greatest place to be!
