Gladis Lugo

Instructional Aide

I became an educator because… I truly believe in the influence an adult can have in a child's life, It amazes me to watch their growth and progress throughout time, it is the most rewarding to be apart of and watch unfold firsthand.

Prior to Equitas, I… always had a passion for being part of a community outside of my day to day routine. I found myself volunteering at several non profit organizations throughout my four years of high school, met lots of great mentors along the way that sparked my interest in choosing to work with young scholars.

I chose Equitas because… I am appreciative of a welcoming environment where similar values are shared.

Outside of school, I enjoy… going for runs, binge watching Breaking bad and The office. Spending quality time with my friends and family is always a must.
