Wirtz State Preschool Rm. 150

My name is Margarita Siordia. I am the preschool teacher at Wirtz in room 150. I have been working for Paramount Unified School District for 26 years. I worked as a Bilingual Assistant for 10 years and became a preschool teacher in 2006. I earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Early Childhood Education from University of La Verne. I also graduated with honors from Cerritos Community College where I earned two Associate of Arts degrees and a Child Development Achievement Certificate. I possess a Site Supervisor Permit from the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing. Working with young children is my passion. I am eager to use my experience and skills to create a positive and fun learning environment for your children this school year.

My hobbies include reading, walking, dancing, and listening to music
