My name is Sandra Callejas, and I am thrilled to be part of the 5th-grade team at Sonal Bhuchar Elementary School. I am especially excited to contribute to your child's education as their English Language Arts and Social Studies educator.

A little about me: I am a first-generation college graduate, having earned my degree from the University of Houston in 2012. "Whoooose House? Cooooogs House!" My husband and I are proud parents to three boys—Nathan, Julian, and Gabriel. This year, we are embracing our roles as Kung Fu, gamer, and band parents! In my free time, I enjoy exercising, hiking, riding bike trails, trying new foods, anything Disney, and reading books.

I believe in the power of engagement in learning, as reflected in my favorite quote: “Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn.” —Benjamin Franklin.

I look forward to seeing your child excel while having fun in their academics!
