Getting to Know Me:

🌍 On a lighter note, let me share some fun facts about myself! I have an insatiable love for learning and enjoy expanding my knowledge through watching documentaries. Also, I was a track runner during my high school days, and even today, running remains my chosen form of self-care. Beyond my role here, I am also a Girls on the Run coach, empowering young girls and fostering their growth.

Life Outside the Office:

🍽️ Post-work, I cherish quality moments with my family and friends, indulging in the diverse and delectable Houston cuisine. Not to forget, I adore spending time with my furry companions, Mimi and Bub.

Thank you for entrusting me with the privilege of supporting your child's emotional and social growth. Let's work hand in hand to create a nurturing and supportive environment for every student here at Herod Elementary.

Best regards,

Valentina Habib, LMSW
