Alma Villalpando

Hi everyone! My name is Alma Cecilia Villalpando. I was born and raised in Zacatecas, México, and moved to the U.S. at nine years old. Since then, I have called Santa Ana home and feel a strong connection to our community and students.

As an educator, I am deeply passionate about helping students make meaningful connections between classroom learning and their own culture and experiences. I hope to make a positive difference by supporting students academically while encouraging them to recognize their potential and believe in their ability to succeed.

Outside the classroom, I am the oldest of four siblings and a proud mother to a five-year-old. In my spare time, I enjoy listening to music, going for walks, and spending quality time with my family!
