"Teaching a first grade bilingual class at SFPS is not just imparting knowledge, it is about fostering curiosity, diversity and nurturing a love of learning in two languages spoken. Together, we embark on a journey where every word, in any language, becomes a stepping stone towards a brighter future." - Bryan Cruz, bilingual first grade teacher

"I have been a teacher for many years both in Boston and Santa Fe. For the past ten years I have taught at Salazar Elementary as the art teacher. This is my dream job: bringing my love for the arts to children. I have the privilege of working with a beautiful community of students by inspiring, challenging and teaching them about the visual arts. I believe that wherever my students' paths take them, they have a foundation that can become a career path, a relaxing hobby, and even a mindset for the rest of their lives. I teach my students that artists are creative problems solvers and that applies to everything they do." -Anna Gibson, Salazar Elementary art teacher
