About Ms. Calderone

This will be my first year as a fifth-grade teacher at Cactus Ranch, but not my first year at the school! I was a proud Longhorn K-5, as well as a substitute last spring.

I was born in Washington D.C., but spent most of my life in Round Rock. I recently moved back after graduating with my bachelors in psychology from Texas State University (eat 'em up cats!) in 2024. I then completed an alternative certification from Texas Teachers of Tomorrow, and made my way back to CRE! I have two cats, Josie and Spencer Reid. They are nuts but I wouldn't have it any other way. I also have a crested gecko named Baby, who loves to play hide and seek.

I enjoy reading, running, hiking, thrifting, traveling, and visiting new coffee shops when I'm not in the classroom.
