Welcome to 6th grade! My name is Mireya Ruiz.  I am going into my 11th year of teaching.  I graduated from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro with a bachelor's degree in elementary (K-6) education.  

I am originally from Mexico but have lived in the United States since I was 6 years old.  I have a son named Frankie who is 16 years old.  I also have a husky named Dexter.  I enjoy mountain biking and spending time with my family!

Fun fact about me:  I have a twin sister who is also a 6th-grade math teacher at Carroll and we have younger twin brothers.  I am also a huge Swiftie :)

I am excited about this new school year and look forward to getting to know you and your families.
