Mrs. schembri's Classroom 

Over the 22 years I have taught at LAPS, I have worked with so many wonderful families, children, and staff. I chose teaching as a career because there were 2 teachers in my life that taught me the power to believe that no matter life's limitations you can strive to overcome anything and accomplish great achievements with confidence, hard work, passion, and compassion. As retirement creeps closer I have many fond memories to remind me how impactful those special teachers were on my life's pursuit and hope that one day there are students and families that I was able to have the same impact for. I am grateful to have so much support from our district, school, and parental community. Outside of school I enjoy spending time with my family as well as learning to cook, paint, read, and exercise.
