Hi everybody,
We are all excited to start a new school year. How nice it is to be part of our awesome learning community! Looking forward to collaborate with you all. I am very positive that through teamwork we can empower our children to achieve their biggest dream.  

Please know that I care and I am here. Feel free to email me at abcomendador@cps.edu and I would be more than happy to support you.

About Me

I am Arlene Baes Comendador. This was me - ten years ago. I am a Doctor of Education and a published author of two books in the Philippines. The books I authored, used by Colleges and Universities in the Philippines, serve as my legacy to the Philippine Educational System. I have been teaching for more than 15 years in the Philippines and for more than 5 years here in the United States. I really love teaching because I want to make a difference - a positive change in the lives of our dear students. I believe in what Albert Einstein says, "Everybody is a genius". We all have something to share. We all have gifts. We all have talents. We all have strengths, we all have needs. This having said, I say everyone is equal and should be treated equally. With proper support and motivation, everybody can be the best that  he can be!

    Feel free to contact me here.

As a Special Education Teacher, I am co-teaching with the General Education Teachers. The Weekly Learning Plan contains the link to the students' lessons in every subject area.
