Debbie Gonzalez began her teaching career in Houston, Texas after graduating from Eastern New Mexico University. After teaching second and then fifth grade in public school, Debbie transitioned to private Christian education where she loves the freedom to share her faith and walk with the Lord. She has over 20 years of experience teaching fifth – seventh-grade math, including honors math, as well as teaching science. Debbie has been with CCS for six years, first teaching fourth-grade reading, Bible, and history and now serves in the Learning Center as a Search and TEACH therapist.

She holds a Bachelor of Science degree in elementary education. Debbie is passionate about working with children. Her goal is to help students gain a better understanding of how they learn, build their confidence by taking risks and overcoming challenges. She loves sharing her love for the Lord and connecting what students are learning to God’s Word and His love for them.

She has been married to her husband, Marcelino, for over 30 years. They have three adult daughters and four grandsons. Debbie loves to read, especially historical fiction, travel and spend time with family. One of her favorite passages is Philippians 4:4-7, “Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again; Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”
