Welcome to 7th Grade!
My name is Mrs. Jimenez, I have been in the district for 17 year and have been teaching 7th grade Math/Science for the past 11 years. My own elementary and middle school education came from this very district. I truly understand this district's culture in which trust, kindness, honesty, and open communication are valued and practiced daily. I completed my education at Cal State San Bernardino, where I received my bachelors and multiple subject credential. I am a mother of three amazing children, CJ who is 10 years old, Alejandra who is 6 years old and AJ who is 3 years old.
