Enirque Najera
Mr. Najera teaches 9th grade AVID and coaches cross country and track and field. He believes that freshman year is extremely important because it sets up the foundation for students to have a successful high school career. We understand that transitioning from middle school to high school can be a challenging and intimidating experience. Therefore, our goal is to provide our freshman students with a comfortable and open environment, experience and community that allows them to learn the expectations, norms and rigors of high school, while also allowing them to be themselves. The best part of being an AVID freshman teacher is watching our students grow into strong and empowered young adults that want to continue their education and success in college and beyond.
