Marina Hagler

Mrs. Hagler has a gift—an extraordinary ability to connect with every child she meets, whether they’re dreamers, thinkers, mischief-makers, or all of the above. Her secret? She never lost touch with her own inner kid. That rare connection allows her to build strong, lasting relationships with students—rooted in love, respect, and trust—and from that foundation, she helps each one rise.

Marina teaches from the heart, believing that all children deserve to be seen, heard, and celebrated. Her classroom is a joyful, inclusive space where kindness, care, and mutual respect are at the core of everything. But her reach extends far beyond four walls—Marina advocates fiercely for all kids, treating every student in the school like one of her own. Young at heart and wise beyond her years, Marina leaves a lasting impact on every child lucky enough to cross her path—and inspires them to do the same for others.
