Welcome to fifth grade! My name is Ms. Figueroa. This is my seventh year teaching at Rutledge Hall.
 
I hold a bachelor's degree in elementary education from DePaul University, a master's degree in community and teacher leaders from Northeastern Illinois University, an endorsement in English as a second language (ESL) from DePaul University, and a Learning Behavior Specialist I (LBS1) endorsement from Northeastern Illinois University.
 
I am an animal lover and have a rescue chihuahua terrier named Xan. He is a small dog with a big personality! I enjoy taking him on walks around the neighborhood daily. I'm looking forward to continuing to work with Lincolnwood's students and families.
