We are absolutely thrilled to welcome some wonderful new faces to the Forrestal family this year! Please join us in giving a warm welcome to Ms. Figuracion, our new 4th Grade Teacher.
We asked Ms. Figuracion to share a little bit about herself and what she is looking forward to this school year:
3 Things I Love About Forrestal:
An Empowering Admin Team: The visionary leadership, clear direction, and strong support that make building our brand-new 4th-grade program possible, while channeling our students' natural resilience into leadership.
The 'All Hands on Deck' Faculty: A warm, welcoming, and collaborative staff that immediately embraced me like family, working together as a cohesive crew so everyone succeeds.
Our State-of-the-Art Facility & Shared Purpose: A beautiful modern building to run hands-on projects, coupled with a deep, unified dedication across our entire team to support and serve our naval families.
3 Fun Facts About Me:
A Guiding Light: I see myself as a lighthouse—here to offer direction, stability, and a steady beam of support for my students.
Through the Lens: I am deeply drawn to photography and love capturing the beauty in everyday moments.
Rooted & Resilient: I was raised like bamboo—flexible enough to bend with life's changes, but grounded with unbreakable strength.
"My goal for this school year is to build a stable, welcoming 'home base' where our 4th graders can grow as student leaders, anchor themselves in our new environment, and feel supported as we build an academic bridge to 5th grade and beyond."
