My name is Zoua Lee. I have been with HOPE Community Academy for four years as a bilingual paraprofessional II and program support.  As a bilingual paraprofessional, I dedicate most of my time with the special education department and as needed.   As a program supporter, I am also with HOPE Start, a program for four year old children.  Along the way, I have many roles to attend as in other duties when requested from colleagues.  In all, I enjoyed working with wonderful staff and students at HOPE Community Academy. Besides my job at HOPE Community Academy, I also have a job at home, my family.  I reserve myself for my three daughters and loving husband, whom needs my attention and care.  I enjoy reading books, cooking, playing educational games on the internet, shopping, and talking about nonsense with my daughters.  When school is not in session, I would take the girls out to the zoo, parks, and my parent’s garden.  In the summer, we take family trips to Michigan, Missouri, and Wisconsin to visit historic sites and families.  This summer, our goal is to go on a road trip to California.
