My name is Steph Emerson, and I teach first-grade. I have been teaching for many years and have had the opportunity to teach first, fourth, and fifth grades. First grade holds a special place in my heart because six-year-olds bring so much enthusiasm and curiosity to the classroom. I love watching their confidence, independence, and skills grow throughout the year.
My husband and I have two children. Our daughter is a senior in college and our son is a junior in high school. Our dog, Rocco, is eight. As a family, we love to travel and explore new places. We also enjoy spending time together playing board games, kayaking, and finding new adventures.
When I’m not spending my days with first graders, I enjoy reading, writing, hiking, traveling, and going to the movies.

Hello, my name is Marissa Ramos, and I am thrilled to be teaching 1st grade at Pioneer this year. This marks my second year teaching 1st grade and my sixth year in education. I previously taught Transitional Kindergarten (TK) for four years at both private and charter schools. I hold a bachelor's degree from Sacramento State University. I live with my husband and our three beloved pets: Milo, Buddy, and Niko. In my free time, I enjoy reading, hiking, and spending quality time with my family, friends, and animals. I am excited to collaborate with Pioneer's excellent staff and students and look forward to meeting everyone!

My name is Hailey Sibrian and this will be my third year teaching! I am so excited to be part of the awesome first grade team at Pioneer Elementary and to meet you all.
A little about myself. I went to California State University, Sacramento where I completed my Bachelor's of Arts degree in Child Development, followed by my Multiple Subject Teaching Credential, and lastly received my Masters in Education at Brandman University. Before becoming a teacher I was an after school leader for 5 years at Westside Elementary and a substitute for the district for 3 years. I am bilingual and speak Spanish.
Outside of school, I love traveling and going to new places. I also started collecting different succulents and houseplants during the Pandemic and became a hobby of mine. They bring me peace and joy and decided to bring that into my classroom with the succulent/plant theme. My love for animals has brought me to have two horses, a goat, a dog, 4 outside cats and 2 kittens. I like listening to Podcasts and enjoy all kinds a music such as country, reggae, reggaeton, rock, merengue, and hip hop etc. I am hooked on bubble tea, sushi and have a major sweet tooth.
I am looking forward to teaching all of my amazing 1st graders! Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. I look forward to a great year together.
