About Mrs. Torres

Since I was younger I have always wanted to be a teacher. I truly love and enjoy teaching our future leaders.

This is my 7th year teaching at EIS and my 4rd year teaching 8th grade. I have been a part of the EIS family since 2010 and absolutely love the community at this school.

When I'm not in my class I LOVE spending time with my family. I recently had a baby (she was born in July 2024), and am loving the mom life! In my free time I enjoy exercising, reading, traveling, and going to Disneyland! I love anything Disney :)
