My name is Dana Saindon and I teach first grade at Jackson Elementary School. I began my teaching career in 2009 after finishing my multiple subject credential and masters of arts in education. I believe that every student has the ability to learn and has the right to a fun, challenging, and productive education. Through meeting the needs of all students, I teach with enthusiasm and hope that all students leave first grade prepared and excited for second grade.

Outside of school, I enjoy spending time with my husband and son. I enjoy traveling, photography, and sports...go Warriors, A's, and 49ers! Finally, I enjoy making a difference in the lives of others, which is what brought me to teaching!
