Say Hello! : U.P. Staff Spotlight

As a kid she wanted to be an architect and her first job was Long John's Sliver. As a student she preferred English and she hated math since it did not come easy to her. Ms. Nicky played volleyball for fun throughout middle school and high school. Although she did not play baseball or football as a kid, she is a Dodgers and Green Bay Packers fan.

Ms. Nicky is the proud mother of 3 kids and 3 pets (2 German Shepherds and a black cat who acts like a dog). Some hobbies that she enjoys in her free time are hiking, swimming and reading. The genre of books that are most interesting to her are drama and motivational books. A book recommendation she has: Her written by Perrie Alex Jeanty.    

Next time you see Ms.Nicky in the hall, say hello!

At the end of the day, when asked 'What her first impression of the school was?', she happily says, "Academics is very important here, not just to administration and the teachers, but also to the students, which I can appreciate. I'm definitely glad to provide that creative element that can give a sense of balance to the academic rigor that's here. But it's nice that we have students that are wanting to be successful, that will do what it takes to be successful, and that are respectful, kind to teachers, kind to each other."

Zeno also goes on to say, " I'm very happy to be here and experience that. Because I was at Hesperia Unified for 17 years before I came here, and it was very different . But I'm very much enjoying the culture here and being that it is my first year, everything is new and I'm relying on my students to guide me, as far as what to expect and what happens here."

With that heart warming introduction, let us all welcome Ms. Zeno to University Prep and hope that she enjoys her stay at the school.
