About Profesora Bolante:

My name is Valerie Bolante and I'd like to welcome you to my class. I am from the Bay Area and have lived here most of my life. I studied Spanish Literature and Latin American & Iberian Studies at UC Santa Barbara. I studied abroad in Spain during college, then I received my Masters & Teaching Credential at the University of San Francisco. I have been a teacher for 25 years and love my job! I'm excited to learn more about your children and explore the Spanish language and culture with them this year.
