Hello! My name is Mrs. Nicole Besaw and I am so excited to be teaching the 4/5 Combo at Pacific Sky!
This is my 11th year working in education! I have experience teaching a variety of grade levels. In addition to teaching, I was an instructional coach for 2 years. I graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Madison (go Badgers!) with a degree in Elementary Education. I also have my Masters Degree in Educational Administration. I am so thrilled to learn alongside the 4th and 5th grade students at Pacific Sky this year. It's going to be a great year! Go Pilots!
Hello! My name is Ms. Sharon Camarillo and I am so excited to be supporting the 4/5 Combo as a teacher at Pacific Sky School!
This is my 12th year working in Del Mar Union School District. I have experience teaching a variety of grade levels but my experience as an educator is predominantly in 4th, 5th and 6th grades. For the last three years I have served as a Teacher on Special Assignment for our Instructional Services department. As a TOSA, I have the privilege of designing and facilitating professional learning reflective of our district's vision for all teachers and staff throughout our district. I have a Bachelor's Degree in journalism and a Master's Degree in Educational Psychology. My husband and I have three daughters (ages 12, 10 and 8).

To foster meaningful engagement in learning, students should see their strengths and interests reflected in the classroom environment. As educators, we place a high value on personalizing learning experiences to meet the needs of each student. We are excited to build strong relationships and cultivate a collaborative learning community—one where students support one another, honor each other’s unique strengths, and persevere through challenges together.
We are both committed to empowering students to become reflective, independent thinkers who apply problem-solving skills across both academic and social contexts.
Outside the classroom, my life is very full and busy! With two little boys, ages 4 and 2, we are constantly on the go. Our family enjoys traveling, camping, going to the beach, riding bikes, and spending time in the California sunshine. Every summer we go back to Wisconsin where I am originally from to make wonderful memories with family!
