Ms. Maggie works one on one with students for Dyslexia, Reading, and Math Intervention. We are incredibly PROUD of the hard work she pours into our kids and the growth they show💚

Hello! My name is Maggie Garcia.
I am so excited for my second year at Villa Crest!💚

I was born and raised here in Clarksville and graduated from Clarksville High School and later on went to get my Bachelors of Science in Elementary Education K-6 while attending University of The Ozarks. I am forever thankful for the wonderful experience at UofO and for my amazing professors who prepared me for my journey.

Before I started working at Villa Crest I was a paraprofessional at Clarksville Elementary, in my short time there I made so many connections with students who I still hold dear to my heart. I also made connections with some wonderful educators, one who is now joining the pack😉

My first year at VCA was truly so great, and I feel so blessed and lucky that I was given such a wonderful opportunity to work there. I have built such a great rapport with my coworkers and with my kiddos🥹I cannot wait for this upcoming year to make so many new memories with everyone and have so so much fun with the pack🐺💚

I am a mom to my loving and beautiful daughter, Ellie, who brings such a joy to my life. Outside of school you can catch me at home with my family or taking pictures. Apart from my job at VCA I am also a photographer. I have been taking pictures since COVID and what was once a hobby turned into my little business.

I look forward to my second year at Villa Crest, can’t wait for year full of fun!

LET THEM RISE!🐺💚🩶

We hope everyone is having the BEST summer! ☀️ 🏖️

We miss our kids and already looking forward to August!

Just a minute while we pat ourselves on the back for hiring this WONDERFUL educator! 👏🙌 She has always been special and we are INCREDIBLY happy she has joined our team! 🐺

Hi! My name is Marily Garcia.
I am so excited to be joining Villa Crest as a 4th/5th grade teacher! 💚

I was born and raised here in Clarksville and have had a beautiful full circle experience.

If I could describe my teaching experience so far, I’d compare it to all the colors in the rainbow. 🌈
Each color has been its own beautiful, unique, and special experience.
Before teaching in a public school, I taught English at the Adult Education. It was so inspiring to see parents of different backgrounds learning and putting in the work to better themselves.❤️
When COVID hit, I moved to Fort Smith where I taught 2nd and 5th grade. At that time, I earned my ESL endorsement which helped me reach my English language learners.
After having my son, my family and I moved back to Clarksville. I am currently finishing up my 6th year teaching third grade at Clarksville Elementary School.
This year I got the opportunity to become an Arkansas Lead Educator! 🍎

I am also active at Holy Redeemer Catholic Church, where I teach 9th grade and enjoy being part of such a wonderful community ✝️🤍

When I’m not in the classroom, you can usually find me in a park with my family, watching movies, or somewhere soaking up the sun. I love making memories with my family. My fiancé and I have a beautiful 4 year old son, Erdrick, who keeps me laughing and on my toes every day.

I feel so lucky to do what I love!
I can’t wait for great year of learning and fun at Villa Crest!
LET THEM RISE! 💚

And that’s a WRAP on the 25-26 school year!! 🩱🩳🛟🍕💦

Our inaugural year at Villa Crest has come to an end. We don’t know whether to cry or jump for joy…

The kids definitely lingered today. No one wanted to leave. It’s been SO special.

We had a “Float” into Summer movie, Pizza for lunch, then outside for water day. We finished our day with a frozen dole whip treat.

MAGICAL! Until next year…

We love you all SO VERY much!
