(4 year-old children) and loves seeing these beautiful little people grow physically, academically, and socially throughout the school year. She enjoys reading, especially her favorite book, One Hundred Years of Solitude. Watching the newest animated movie, rollerblading and riding her bike with her beautiful daughter Sophia is her definition of a “perfect day.” Spending time and traveling with her family is her favorite pastime. Ms. Santana loves the beautiful mountains of Colorado, however, she hopes to return to the island of her ancestors-the beautiful, sunny, tropical island of Puerto Rico.
