Mrs. Melissa M. Tirado

Thank you for welcoming me to the VFE family! I am entering my 21st year in education this year. I was an ENL teacher in Arlington and a classroom teacher in NYC. Prior to joining VFE, I was the Elementary Teacher Assistant to the Principal at Noxon Road Elementary.  

Outside the school day, I enjoy spending time with my husband, two daughters, two pugs, and two bunnies. My eldest daughter is beginning college this year, and my youngest will be entering 8th grade. 

I look forward to meeting you and your family!
