Let's give a warm Malvern welcome to Mrs. Cassidi Beracochea. Cassid says, "Hi! My name is Cassidi Beracochea, I am so excited to be returning to a campus close to my heart. I taught special education in Resource at Malvern for 9 ½ years before beginning my career as an Educational Diagnostian and after a year and a half into my new position, I am returning to Malvern! Before coming to McKinney ISD, I taught in a bilingual early childhood program for children with disabilities for 12 years, so I have been working in education for 23 years.

I love what I do and enjoy the role I serve in identifying disabilities and helping with recommendations for services to support students in the school setting.

On a personal note, I have been married to my high school sweetheart for over 25 years and we have a 22 year old son who just graduated from college and an 18 year old daughter who is beginning her college career this fall. We also have a rat terrier mix who is like my third child, Lola. We are a big soccer family and have spent many years going to both, my daughter's and son’s games in high school, college and club ball. I love spending time at the lake on the boat, and in the sunshine and that is where I spend most of my summer break every year. I am looking forward to seeing so many familiar faces and to meeting new ones."

Mr. Antonio Vega is coming to Malvern! Mr. Vega says, " Hello Malvern families! 👋

My name is Antonio Vega, and I am so excited to be joining the Malvern Elementary family as a bilingual fourth-grade teacher! Originally from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷, I have a passion for helping others discover that learning can be meaningful, creative, and fun.

I believe curiosity is the beginning of every great adventure. My goal is to create spaces where everyone feels welcomed, encouraged, and inspired to use their imagination, ask questions, explore new ideas, challenge themselves, and discover just how much they are capable of accomplishing. Together, we'll celebrate creativity, work hard, and make learning an adventure.

When I'm not in the classroom, you'll usually find me listening to music 🎵, reading or adding another book to my collection 📚, creating arts and crafts 🎨, learning something new 💡, exploring creative ideas, or occasionally participating in local theater productions 🎭. I love being creative and finding inspiration in everyday life.

I can't wait to get to know my students and their families, and I look forward to an incredible school year filled with learning, curiosity, laughter, growth, and unforgettable memories. Go Red Hawks!
