Mrs. Sandoval was my first grade teacher. She was wonderful! I am pursuing my teaching credential. I hope I can make just as big of an impact with my students as she did with me she was a really loving and caring teacher. She loved all of her students.My prayers to all of her family. Love Martha Baxter

Mom. It broke our hearts to lose you, but you did not go alone. A part of us went with you, the day God took you home. If tears could build a stairway, and heartaches make a lane, we would walk our way to heaven, and bring you back again. In life we loved you dearly, in death we love you still, in our hearts you hold a place no one could ever fill.Roberto guerrero,luckie Sanchez,Sergio Lerma,Mary Barron... :'(
