My name is Chastity Lopez. I'm originally from El Paso but have been in the DFW area many years. I graduated from Austin College and the University of North Texas. This is my 24th year as an educator. Some of my hobbies I enjoy are crocheting, reading, doing yoga, and spending time with my family. My decision to become an educator comes from having some great teachers as role models growing up and my Grandma's influence to help others by teaching and learning.

Hello my name is Ms. Moore. I am from Dallas, TX. I attended Abilene Christian University and graduated with my Bachelor’ degree in 2018. My hobbies are reading, collecting candles, traveling, and listening to live music. I decided to work in education because I enjoy the look students get when they learn something new and can apply to their everyday lives for themselves and their community. I believe education is the foundation for students to change and create in this world.
