Dr. Veronica Cruz
Born in Barranquilla, Colombia, I moved to St. Louis in 2000. I am married to Tulio for 29 years and have three grown children: Carlos,Anaisabel and Lina .
While raising my daughters ,gave me the opportunity to switch my career from being a family and E.R. physician in my hometown, to education here in the USA, since it is my other passion.Currently I am a certified teacher in K-12 Spanish and 9-12 Biology.
I worked as a Spanish immersion teacher for 8 years, and I am very happy to be teaching Spanish at Roosevelt High School since 2017.
Also I am the coordinator of the After School Program because I am convinced we have to provide a safe space to our students.
Acquiring a foreign language and awarnes of other cultures provides students and young adults with advantages that will help them throughout their lifetime.
