Welcome to Keiller Leadership Academy and to Mrs. Allende's TK/Kindergarten Class!
This week marks one of the most important milestones in your child's life—the first day of school. I'm so excited to be part of this journey with you and your family.
With 14 years of experience at KLA, I bring a deep commitment to our school's mission and vision, along with a comprehensive background in education. I earned my Master's degree in Education from Loyola University Maryland, hold a California Bilingual Teaching Credential from San Diego State University, and have completed four Montessori diplomas spanning birth through 18 years—giving me a rich understanding of how children grow and learn at every stage of development.
Our goal at KLA is to provide a carefully prepared, stimulating Montessori environment that helps children build the foundational habits and skills essential for a lifetime of creative thinking and learning. Transitional Kindergarten and Kindergarten mark a year of remarkable growth—socially, emotionally, physically, and intellectually. Your involvement and enthusiasm will be key to making this a wonderful year for your child.
I am so excited to partner with you and your child on this Montessori journey. This is a special place designed to be a peaceful and engaging environment where your child can explore, learn, and grow at their own pace. I look forward to working together to make this a year of wonderful discoveries, new friendships, and lots of fun!
Warmly,
Mrs. Allende
