My name is Ms. Gabriela Pantoja, and I am so excited to be your sixth grade homeroom or math teacher for the 2020-2021 school year! This is my second year as a full-time teacher at St. Jude, and my fifth year here as an employee. I can't wait to make this our best year yet!

I grew up and currently live in Ventura. Just like you, I went to a Catholic school, Our Lady of Assumption, and went on to attend St. Bonaventure High School where I played volleyball! I have amazing parents and a wonderful younger brother, Sam.

I graduated with my Bachelor of Arts in Education Interdisciplinary Studies with a minor in Spanish from California Lutheran University in Thousand Oaks. I received my California State Teaching Credential and my Masters in Teacher Leadership from CLU as well.
