Hi everyone :) My name is Sonia Smith!

I am married to my middle school sweetheart and we are proud parents of a cat named Princess, no children yet! My husband and I were born and raised in Los Angeles CA. Due to my husband being active duty with the Navy we moved Jacksonville, FL in December 2017. I have traveled most of my 25 years of living but never thought I would end up living somewhere else other than Cali. This is my first move since his return from Japan, in which he did 2 years out there. But now are getting ready to say goodbye to Florida in July and heading back to Cali so we can do 3 years shore duty. We are excited to come back home to family and friends and maybe start a family of our own.

I love to travel to any and every new city, state, or country. I just did a recent trip to Rincon Puerto Rico and it was amazing! The culture was amazing and the locals were great! I have not been out the country yet but do plan on before my husband and I have kids. Planning a Japan trip for our 4 year anniversary next year, 2019.

I am currently working on Masters for early childhood education. I am thrilled to be almost finished in about year! POC has been nothing but GREAT to me. I have actually work on campus as a student worker and also had the chance to work PO Child School with the infant and toddlers.

I have work in ECE field since 2013. I am currently a Preschool teacher at a private Christan school. I have only seemed to work in private Catholic school setting or private Christian school settings. Each year I teach I fall more in love and believe that I am here to make a difference.

"You are someone's reason for coming to school tomorrow. Be who they think you are" #TeacherGoals

My future goals are to have at least 5 more years of teaching and move to admin. I believe a school is only as good as the there admin, teachers, parents, and students! You have to have a strong lead in order for people to follow and it starts with the administration.

These are my preschool babies who are moving on to kindergarten next year! So many of them have come a long way and I am proud of each and everyone one of them!
