Ms. Irene Vega is our Transitional Kindergarten teacher at our preschool.  This is her second year and she loves teaching our youngest learners at Notre Dame.  She has three associates in Liberal Arts, Social Science, Early Child Education and her B.S. in Business Psychology.  She also has her certificate for Early Childhood Education.  She plans to pursue her doctorate in Education Leadership.  She strongly believes that parents and teachers need to partner together in order for children to thrive, so communication and transparency are very important.  In her spare time, she likes to hike, go to the beach, read, draw, journal, walk her dog, spend time with family and friends, and try new restaurants.

Mrs. Nesrin Kaya has joined us as our Preschool Extended Day teacher.  She has a Bachelor's Degree in Communicative Disorders and a minor in Special Education from San Francisco State University.  She loves being with preschoolers and making learning fun for kids.
