Mrs. Hernandez's Studio

Hello! Welcome to my classroom. I am so excited to meet all of you. I hope that you are looking forward to taking art at Alta Sierra!

About Me:

I am a fourth year teacher! However, I have a lot of experience teaching kids. My first job was a tutoring and babysitting service I started myself at age 12. I've had several jobs in education and I've dabbled in the Summer Fun Program in Clovis. I graduated from Fresno State in 2021 with my Bachelor's Degree in Art and Design. I graduated summa cum laude, which is just a fancy way of saying I got all A's.

While at Fresno State, I played for the Ultimate Frisbee team and designed all of our jerseys (see pictures below!). I met my husband Curtis during my freshman year and we adopted our sweet boy Miles together. In my opinion, he's the best dog ever, but I'd love to see your pets as well. 

I went back in the fall to complete my teaching credential and continue playing frisbee. My mentor teachers were awesome! I had a great time learning how to teach you art. I used to be "Ms. Bishop," but I got married in February 2025 and became "Mrs. Hernandez!"

In my free time, I love to make art, bake, and play Dungeons and Dragons with my good friends. If you are familiar with D&D (thanks Stranger Things!), I am the Dungeon Master - the person who runs the game for everyone else. 

Fun Facts:

• I have two brothers, Matthew and Ryan. I am the oldest!

• I once got trapped in a 95 degree elevator for 40 minutes in Las Vegas. We were rescued by firefighters and got a free dinner. Still... 0/5 stars!

• I have never had a nosebleed.

• I have two kitties, Goose and Duck.

• I've played flute and piccolo for 15 years.

• My favorite color is lavender!
