Hello!

Welcome to Kindergarten!  

My name is Olivia Rios and this will be my 17th year teaching. I graduated from UTSA (GO Roadrunners!) Kindergarten is my most favorite grade. I love reading great stories with my kinder littles, teaching the foundation of reading and seeing the look on their face when they've made a learning connection!  San Antonio has always been my home. My husband and I have 3 sons and we love to support them in all that they do. Being part of this community both as a parent and an educator is definitely rewarding. I am proud to be a part of the Kallison Stampede!

Welcome to Kindergarten! 

My name is Raeland Williams and this is my third official year of teaching - what an amazing ride it has been! I was honored to be named First Year Educator of the Year as well as receive a NEF grant my first year. I have worked in different positions within Kallison including Principal secretary and long term substitute in first grade, but teaching Kindergarten is my favorite! I’m passionate about creating a positive and engaging classroom environment where every student feels supported and encouraged. I love making learning fun and seeing how excited the kiddos get! When I’m not teaching, I’m busy at home with my amazing husband and our three beautiful daughters, who definitely keep life exciting. I’m so excited for another great year of learning and growing together!

Hello Stampede! I am Mr. Martinez and this is my 29th Year in Education, and I am proud to say they have all been in Kindergarten! There is no other job I would ever want to do. "The Littles" have taught me the greatest lessons throughout my career. I have always set out to teach the "Whole Child" the best that I can. Success does not look the same for each child, but by teaching a combination of academics, social skills, and a sense of wonder, it is my hope to make, "The World A Better Place...One Five Year Old At A Time!"

I am a graduate of The University of Texas at San Antonio (Let's Go 210!) and I began my career in SAISD. I remained there for (13) years before making the transition to NISD, which I am a product of myself. During my first year here in Northside I had the  opportunity to be a part of opening Forester Elementary and was honored to be named Educator of The Year 2010. Kallison Elementary has been home to me for the past (5) years and I could not be happier to be a part of this wonderful campus and its Leadership. My family and friends are everything to me and I enjoy my time with them outside of school.
