Hello! I am so excited and grateful to be your teacher!  My name is Melissa Monteiro.  I am so thrilled to be a part of the Stuber Family and starting this incredible journey together! This will be my 12th year teaching.  I was a Spanish bilingual teacher for 7 years.  I have taught Kindergarten, Fourth and Third grade.  This will be my fifth year as a Third grade teacher.  

My family and I moved from Houston, Texas to Prosper last summer.   I grew up as the daughter of an Army soldier and as a result moved around a lot.  I received my bachelor’s degree at Sacred Heart University in San Juan, Puerto Rico.  I also served 8 years as a Military Police Officer and retired 13 years ago.  

I have a wonderful husband and three incredible and very active kiddos.  I have a Freshman, 7th grader, and 7 year old daughter.  I also have the cutest and cuddliest fur babies, Fenway and Doc!  When I have free time you can find me cheering on our children at various sporting events.  I love the outdoors, hiking, traveling, music, and lacrosse!

I truly believe that education is a team effort. My goal is that your child feels valued, loves learning, and has fun.  My door is always open.  I can’t wait to start this journey with you!
