All About Mrs. Escobar!

My name is Lisa Escobar and I will be your child’s first grade teacher for the 2023-2024 school year.

I was born and raised in Arizona. I attended college in 2002-2006 at South Mountain Community College and Arizona State University. Go Sun Devils! Throughout my four years of college, I spent my practicum hours in all elementary grades K-8, but eventually found my heart during my student teaching hours in the Kyrene School District, teaching in a 1st/2nd multi-age class!  I graduated from ASU in 2006. This will be my 17th year teaching 1st grade. I taught 1st grade at Trailside Point Performing Arts School in Laveen for 14 years, then transferred to Estrella Foothills Global Academy and opened this school in August 2020.

I have been married to my husband for almost 14 years.  I have two children, Joshua and Jocelyn as well as a dog named Ollie and a hamster named Nibbles.  I enjoy reading, working out, spending time outdoors and spending time with my family and friends.  My family and I also LOVE sports! We love cheering on our hometown teams, Go Diamondbacks, Suns and Cardinals!
