This small but fierce team packs a big academic punch. The team is led by a former Heritage student, Samantha Collier. Joining her are four strong teachers. Laura Hrncir is new to 4th grade, but not to Heritage; and Shannon Messer is new to Heritage, but not to teaching. The Dual Language teacher of the team is Tina Castillo. Rounding out the team is Special Education teacher, Dorothur Odonnell. Together this tight knit group works to empower their students with a love of learning. They use their varied experiences to differentiate instruction to include all students. Pictured from left to right are Collier, Odonnell, Hrncir, Messer, and Castillo.
