About Mrs. Milan-Mariscal

Academic Background:   B.A. Political Science with a minor in Spanish from U.C. Davis; Teaching Credential, Single Subject in Social Science from National University; Maters in Education from National University. 

Why did I decided to teach?   A teaching career has always been something that I wanted to pursue, but there was always a reason why I couldn't go back to school.  Sometimes the real was the kids were to young and demanded too much of my time.  I was too comfortable in my job making way more money than I would as a first year teacher.   I believe that every student can learn and I want to be the person that helps students reach their full potential. 

I love history, always have always will, I remember taking every history class offered at my high school and then when I went to college I did not major in history but I really should have with the number of history classes I took. Every quarter if there was an elective I could squeeze in...yup it was a history class...took a whole history class on Martin Luther (not King) the guy who broke away from the catholic church and started the Lutheran religion, yup that guy!  Women's History, Chicano History, World History, Renaissance history,  Mexican History... you get the picture!  

Family life:  Well I come from a big family, I am the 4th of six kids so I know what its like to be loud and a bit crazy.  My immediate family consist of my husband and my two sons ages 15 and 7.  I have a large extended family and getting together is so much fun and chaotic. 

Interests and Hobbies:  I like watching movies, every genre.  I love scrap booking, just don't have a lot of time.  I enjoying camping and hanging out with friends and family, and watching football and baseball.
