This April, with Ms. Pastor working hard, she is rewarded with the 6th grade TOTM certificate. With WMS students voting and the votes tallying up, its was a well-deserved award!

Pastor says it feels “awesome” and is was her first time which made it even more honorable. “The kids, they seem to appreciate my effort which is really nice” Pastor explains on who inspires to keep going.

Pastor says she attended Rutgers University and then went to Kean University for graduate school. Even though Pastor’s free time is limited, she enjoys spending time with her family, going to the gym, and cooking.

She says her favorite lesson to teach “has to be” Ancient History, “I feel like it has influenced many things we do today in modern society”

Before Pastor’s teaching life, she wanted to pursue the dream of becoming a nurse at an early age, “Really little, the element changed when I noticed there was a lot of blood. So after that I went back to becoming a teacher.”

Congratulations Ms. Pastor, keep putting in the hard work and effort!
