Family Engagement

Family Engagement Liaison

Ana Gabriela Mendoza (GABY)

 
Welcome to my website! I am the proud parent of two amazing young men—who are eleven years apart—and a beloved dog who truly is a member of the family. I was born and raised in Mexico City, moved to San Antonio at the age of 14 and have proudly called it home ever since.

My professional path took me through various roles in the private sector before I found my true calling in education in 2005. I spent seven rewarding years as a Dual Language Teacher before becoming a Title I Family Specialist in 2011. In 2024, I was honored to transition into my current role as a Family Engagement Liaison.

Today, I proudly support six NEISD campuses: The International School of the Americas (ISA), the North East Alternative Center  (AMS/AHS), the Academy of Creative Education (ACE), Castle Hills Elementary, Roan Forest Elementary, and Stone Oak Elementary. I look forward to collaborating with school staff, community partners, and families to support and empower our future leaders.
