Meet Sra. Padilla
About me
Hola! My name is Maria Padilla and I’m originally from Venezuela. I’ve been living in this country for 19 years and I love meeting people from different cultures. I graduated from TWU in Visual Arts with a major in Education. I’ve been teaching Dual Language for 14 years and when I was living in Venezuela I taught Art as well. I have a daughter, her name is Camila and we love watching movies together and playing with our dog Cookie.
Meet Ms. Klima
Hello, my name is Cheryl Klima. I’m so excited to be back in the classroom and teaching 3rd grade Spanish Immersion with Sra. Padilla. This is my 31st year to teach elementary school, and believe it or not, I have been with LISD my entire career! I’ve taught 3rd grade in the past as well as 4th and 5th grade. I am a graduate of the University of Oklahoma (Go Sooners!) and when not teaching, I enjoy spending time with my family, my boxer dog, Brody, shopping and traveling.
