Substitute Teacher
Ms. Angela Leyva earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Child and Family Development from San Diego State University in 2015, an American Montessori Society (AMS) Certification in 2013 and an Association Montessori Internationale (AMI) Certification in 2018. She studied abroad in Avila, Spain, for 6 months and has been teaching in Montessori environments for over 10 years. Upon her return from Spain, she attended The Montessori Institute of San Diego, where she trained as an ‘assistant to infancy’ (0-3 years).
Ms. Angela has served as both a passionate and beloved Guide and administrator for LJMS. She stepped back from a leadership position in 2025, but has generously offered to support us as a substitute teacher.
In her free time, Ms. Angela enjoys volunteering with her children’s school and activities, traveling with her family, and going to the beach.
