Jamie Cisneros has been the AP Chemistry
teacher at Edinburg High School for two years and
a Ford Pas teacher for one. She is also involved
in many extracurricular activities such as
Cross-Country and Track. In her free time she
enjoys cycling, running, hiking and any adventure
or misadventure she can find. She has two
rambunctious boys and a very supportive husband.
Failure is simply the opportunity to begin
again, this time more intelligently.

Ford Pas is filled with student centered
activities that are fun and educational.
Students get the opportunity to work with more
than just a pencil, paper and calculator! I use
Ford Pas in my classroom to differentiate my
instruction. It allows me an alternative method
of assessment and a break from the ordinary.
Ford Pas also opens new doors to all my students
via scholarship and intern prospects.
