Tech with Ms. Ortega

I am so excited to be at Deep Wood Elementary as the Instructional Technology Specialist. I love being an ITS and I love being at Deep Wood with all of you. I am looking forward to all the great things we have in store for this year.

I worked as a graphic designer for 8 years and an IT firm for 2 in Chicago, IL. I really wanted to teach those skills to teachers and students, so I went through the Region XIII alternative certification program to become a teacher. I taught yearbook to High School and Middle School for 3 years and now I am working the best job in the world.
