Welcome to Kindergarten! My name is Dorina Aliza Crutchfield. This is my second year as a Kindergarten Dual Language teacher at Hackberry Elementary.  I began teaching 16 years ago as a ESL Kinder and Bilingual/ Dual Language Second grade teacher for DISD. After this wonderful experience, I taught Spanish and Fine Arts for St. Martin de Porres Catholic School. I have a Bachelor of Science in Child and Family Studies from Texas A&M -Kingisville and a Master’s Degree in Bilingual Education from SMU. My hobbies are playing soccer, traveling, and horseback riding. I love to try new things and learning about different cultures.  I am a girl scout troop leader and a board member for Camp Tonkawa's Outdoor Learning Center. I am married to my wonderful husband Dion and we have three beautiful children.  I am excited about meeting and working with your children this year. It is going to be an amazing year!
