Hello, my name is Araceli Vivas, I go by Ms. Cheli. I have been in Early Childhood Education for 14 years
now and this is my 3 rd year at AOL. I am the Prek 4 teacher and the AOL Preschool Director. I love being a
part of the AOL family because we truly are like family here. We have such a strong community and it’s
wonderful to be part of a family oriented school with a strong faith.
Teaching young children has always been a passion of mine. I bring compassion, patience, and creativity
to our class. One of the best parts of teaching is that I get to watch them grow developmentally and
achieve new skills throughout the year. The early years is an important time to nurture children’s love of
learning, so I am always looking for new ways to make learning fun and engaging for our little ones!
In my free time I enjoy spending time with my daughter, being outdoors, and caring for our abundance
of pets!
