Please go to your level of Spanish on the top right after reading this page.
Dear Parents/Guardians,
Welcome to the 2024-2025 school year! My name is Vanessa Lozada, and I look forward to being your son or daughter’s Spanish teacher this year. This is my 17th year teaching Spanish in Columbia County and I enjoy the challenge of educating students.
As a teacher and a parent, I realize that in order for our children to be successful, it is important that you and I work together in guiding them to learn responsibility for their education. This year I am teaching Spanish 2, Spanish 3 , Spanish 4 and AP Spanish Language and Culture. If you want a quick response, please email me to communicate a concern vanessa.lozada@ccboe.net .
In addition, I recommend that you access parent portal, which is the online grading system that Columbia County uses. It is a good tool to know how your child is doing in the areas of grades and attendance. You can become aware of problems before it is too late to correct them.
I look forward to teaching your student. Stay well and safe!
Sincerely,
Señora Lozada
