Mrs.Connors
Anybody that truly knows me knows I’m full of doubt. Luckily, I’ve been blessed with the ability to have teachers who believed in me when I couldn’t believe in myself. But Mrs. Connors believed in me when I failed. No literally, I failed my AICE English Language exam my sophomore year. But I decided to retake it and Mrs. Connors sat with another student and I until we understood. She tried variou...

Mrs.Ewing
Mrs. Ewing has been a math teacher at Santaluces since before my dad started high school in 1992. She's dealt with probably half of my family throughout the years and now she's dealing with my little sister in one of her Algebra 2 classes. I had the pleasure of having Mrs. Ewing during my freshman year as well as my junior year. On the first day, she said “Oh so you’re the McCranels” an...

Dr.Snyder
While I was unable to be in Dr. Snyder’s class in person this year, he has still managed to make his class one of the many I will remember moving forward. Snyder has constantly been able to make his lessons entertaining while also teaching his material in a manner that sticks. I look forward to his class every day due to his fun personality, he interacts with his students in a way that feels much closer...

Ms. Matuella
My favorite teacher at Santaluces is Ms. Matuella, and I have many reasons for her being my favorite teacher. Ms. Matuella aka Ms. M was my teacher for AVID my freshman year. For me, my freshman year was really hard because I was taking AP classes, and classes that were above my grade level, not to mention this was my first year of high school. Throughout the whole year, Ms. M helped me in every possib...

Ms.Mangone
By the end of the day, I’m always very drained but Ms.Mangone always manages to let me end my school day positively. The pandemic has taken a huge toll on the traditional way of teaching. However, Ms.Mangone has persevered and put her all into preparing us for the APUSH exam. APUSH is notoriously one of the hardest AP classes and I was really nervous going into it but her persistence and motivat...

Mrs.Fullington
I've had Mrs. Fullington as a teacher for arguably two of the hardest classes offered on campus, AICE Thinking Skills and AP Biology, and she's been nothing short of incredible. With her innovative ways of teaching AICE Thinking Skills, she ensured that the skills that we learned stuck with us not only for the AICE exam but also for life. I will never forget when she taught us how to be specific with...
