ABOUT YOUR LIBRARIAN
Ms. Patricia Aguilar
I am honored to serve as the Librarian for the mighty Centeno Bucks since November 2020. My career in education is built on a strong foundation in elementary learning, including classroom experience teaching Fourth Grade, Second Grade, and Fifth Grade. I earned my Bachelor of Science in Interdisciplinary Studies (Early Childhood Education), Magna Cum Laude, from Texas A&M International University in 2014, followed by a Master of Library Science from Sam Houston State University in 2019. I am dedicated to using my experience as a former teacher to connect students with engaging literature and reliable resources, fostering a lifelong love of reading and inquiry for our students and their families.
