My name is Detra Njenga. I'm a newly dedicated Life Skills teacher with 17 years of experience in education with a background in Speech-Language Pathology. This year, I will be teaching Reading and Social Studies.  I previously taught 4th grade ELAR. Outside the classroom, I am a devoted mom to two grown boys and a proud grandmother to one granddaughter. My favorite color is yellow, and I love spending time outdoors. I'm an active member of my church's praise and worship team, where I find joy in serving and connecting with my community. Currently, I share my life with my supportive boyfriend, BJ. I am passionate about making a difference in my students' lives and believe in the power of life skills education to shape a better future.
