Mrs. Gonzales
This is my 11th year of teaching and my 5th here at Kallison! I graduated from St. Mary's University in 2013 and won 1st year Educator of the Year in 2014. My husband Zeke and I have 3 children: Stella (6), Zeke IV (3), & Helena (1). I absolutely love teaching 3rd grade! I come from a family of educators and truly believe I have the best job because I get to spend my days with the coolest little people!

Mrs. Galindo
Hello, my name is Diandra Galindo and I am so excited to have you in my class this year! This is my 6th year teaching and I have experience teaching both 3rd and 4th grades. I married my highschool sweetheart Greg, we have a son named Gavin (4), and have a grumpy old Shuh Tzu named Flynn. When I'm not at school, I enjoy baking delicious custom cookies and spending time with family. I take pride in teaching in this district because I am a proud product of NISD! I look forward to working with you and your student this year, and help make their 3rd grade experience an awesome one!

Hello! My name is Sara Perrenoud and I’m SO excited to welcome you to 3rd Grade! I am entering my 5th year of teaching and there is no place I’d rather be than here at Kallison. I’ve been married to my husband Evan for 17 years and we have two wonderful children, Parker (11) and Piper (9).
