Hello! I am Sarah Mejia and I teach Kindergarten at Nimitz Elementary!  I have been here at Nimitz for 22 years and was a preschool teacher at Head Start before that.  I graduated from Tivy High School in 1997 and from UTSA in 2001.  I began my teaching career here in KISD in 2002.  I love teaching and learning new things.  I also have a passion for rescuing and raising animals, as well as gardening.  I love reading all things literature and sharing that love with children. I am a member of the First Presbyterian Church and enjoy helping with their Childrens Ministry team, as well as VBS. I am married,have two great kids, and one amazing grandson. I believe in teaching and nurturing the whole child.  I believe in building positive relationships and fostering a variety of learning types. I thrive on the "dysfunction" that comes with kindergarten and genuinely love navigating toward the functional.
