Carolyn Mann
Good day. My name is Carolyn Mann. Thank you for taking the time to look over our website. I am so proud of the learning community we are creating here at Empow3r. A bit about my background. I come from a family of teachers. I have always enjoyed teaching, so much so I earned my MA in Education. Although I have attended school for many years, I find I continue to learn from my students each year. This is what makes teaching fun and rewarding. I have been at the IEP table as a teacher, an administrator, as well as a parent of a daughter who is dyslexic.. This makes working with students and attending IEP's meaningful for me. I enjoy looking at different perspectives when working with families. I strongly believe that each student has individual needs. Welcome to our website. We look forward to serving your family.

Isabella Spada
This is Miss Ravetto’s ninth year teaching Special Education! She believes that teaching special needs children is the greatest thing ever and is the most rewarding career choice out there. She attended the University of Utah and Dixie State University and received a BA in Psychology & Secondary Education. She later continued her education to earn her Special Education Endorsement in 2016.
As a California native, some of her favorite time spent is at the beach. She likes to swim, go on hikes, and play on the tennis court! Mrs. Ravetto enjoys traveling, eating exotic foods, reading, painting, and trying new things. Most of all, Miss Ravetto loves to spend time with family and friends!

Wow! Empow3r Education was a dream and now it's here. My name is Jodie and I have been teaching for 24 years. I grew up in Northern Michigan, then moved to NY, and eventually made my way West to California. I now live in San Diego county and enjoy the beautiful weather. I have 4 kids, 2 dogs, and one cat. In my spare time, I love spending time with my kids and trying new restaurants on the coast. Where do I see myself in ten years? I will always be a teacher and plan to help Empow3r Education grow to other states.

Hello everyone! My name is Maya. I currently work at Orangetheory fitness as a sales associate and social media manager and I am in school for business marking and kinesiology. I spend most of my free time surfing, with my family, or at the beach. I grew up in a family of 5 so being around all of my siblings and my parents is very important to me.

Hi! This will be my 18th year teaching, and I currently hold Mild/Moderate, Moderate/Severe, DHH, and VI credentials, as well as an MS in Special Education. I have had the pleasure of traveling around the country for my husband's employment and am currently licensed in the following amazing states: California, Nevada, and South Carolina. I have three beautiful children and love spending all of my free time with them, often on some fun outdoor adventure. I’m an animal lover and share my home with both cats and dogs. The opportunity to teach and positively impact individuals' lives is a blessing, and I am very grateful to continue contributing to the education field.
