Hello my name is Karla Aragon. I recently graduated from National Louis university in Chicago with a Bachelor’s in Elementary Education and minor in ESL/Bilingual. I am so grateful for the opportunity to be teaching at OLT. As I finished my student teaching I was placed in a third grade classroom as I am now teaching third grade as well so I will be gladly implementing all of the awesome teaching activities and learning strategies in my classroom. Being a first year teacher and begging in the community that saw me grow up has been one of the best pleasures. Living in the Little Village Community area has given me the ability to understand the students at a personal level and be able to communicate with parents as well. 

 

My time at OLT has been very much a pleasure. What I enjoy the most is the diversity amongst the school and the liberty of reaching out to any staff member and asking for help. I am looking forward to getting to know the students and staff better and joining them in their journey of finding god and creating wonderful memories in the classroom
