Maile has been a dedicated part of the Kings Mountain Elementary family since 2008. She began her career at the school as a special education aide and later transitioned to teaching the upper grades.

She lives in La Honda and is the mother of two daughters, both graduates of Half Moon Bay High School.One of them is now inspiring young minds as a math teacher at Cunha! 

In her multiage classroom, Maile brings a balanced combination of effective classroom management and thoughtful, innovative teaching strategies. As a child, she was drawn to The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis, a book that helped spark her imagination. She especially appreciates when students demonstrate critical thinking and engage thoughtfully with their learning.
