Hello!  My name is Beth Schumacher-Bonilla (Mrs. Bonilla).  This is my 7th year as a math specialist/interventionist at Mission Glen Elementary.   Prior to Mission Glen, I have 15 years of teaching experience as a math specialist, a Math Recovery teacher, and a classroom teacher.  My goal as a math specialist is to get students and teachers to enjoy math and build a deeper understanding of numeracy. 

I grew up in St. Louis, Missouri where I attended K-12 in the Affton School District.  I got my bachelor degree in education from Southeast Missouri State University in Cape Girardeau, Missouri.  After graduating from SEMO, I moved to Houston to begin my teaching career.  I am happily married with two wonderful boys, ages 9 and 7, and a pug daughter named Meggi Moo.  As a family we enjoy running, camping, and traveling around the world.       

To help your child grow a love for math, simply play board games, play card games, cook together, and/or shop together.  These everyday activities will help build the numeracy foundation all children need.
