My Bio

Hello, my name is Lisa Cordova. I am so excited to join San Tan Charter. I will be teaching our ESS students at the Recker campus! I have been teaching Special Education for 13 wonderful years. I love seeing my students succeed and develop self confidence in academics and socially is very rewarding.

I have two wonderful young adult children. Matthew is 27 and is busy dad! He is running his own construction company and trying to keep up with his sweet little three-year-old boy Carter. My daughter Hailey is 23 and on her way to dental school to become an oral and maxillofacial surgeon. My little family is my world.

I studied and received my Montessori Teaching certificate from NAMC, Montessori. I continued my education at Arizona State University where I studied at the School of Social and Behavioral Sciences, interdisciplinary perspective across fields of SSBS and Cross Categorical K-12 Special Education.

In my free time I love spending time with my young adult kids and grandson. I am a lover for the beach, live music, bike rides along the beach, shopping, interior design, swimming, and spending time with all my close friends. I look forward to meeting all my new students and their families. I know we are going to have an amazing school year!
