My name is Mariel Nuñez and I am the Intervention teacher at Mt. Pleasant Elementary.  I am a product of the Mt. Pleasant Elementary School district, I attended Robert Sanders when I was a child.  It was thanks to my 5th grade teacher that I decided I wanted to be an educator.    I graduated from Mt. Pleasant High School and then went to Santa Clara University with a full paid scholarship (Eastside FUture Teachers Project).  I received my B.S. in English and Spanish.  I also received my credential and Masters degree from SCU.  I have taught in the K-2 grade levels as both a classroom teacher and an Intervention Teacher as well as been a school administrator.  This is my 18th year in the district and  7th years as an Intervention Teacher.  I look forward to working with the MP community to better support our students in the area of reading and writing.
