He's always been very passionate in what he teaches and shows a lot of patience with his students, even when they're being rowdy or when they aren't paying attention to his work.

He always makes sure I have a passing grade they do fun games or let us have fun with our lessons He let me know hy making sure I get my stuff done and passing with flying colors Keeps me out of trouble by knowing I’m a good kid

Mr Mendoza was my 9th grade teacher. I’m now in 11th. And still ever since I left the 9th grade, Mr Mendoza has been my top number 1 teacher. I will always remember how nice he was, he would be kind towards me. He would allow me to visit his class and i would write fun and silly notes for him, a little reminder that he’s still awesome, and a little reminder that I won’t forget him when I graduate. He’s always been so supportive and logical. He would listen anytime I had something to tell him. He would give me some snacks if I didn’t eat the whole day. I was and still am very comfortable around him. I would tell him about my day and how I’ve been. I gave him some desserts I made in culinary class. And although he isn’t my teacher anymore, and maybe in the future he will have another student like me, I hope that student think the same way about him like how I do. Til this day, he will always have an amazing impact on me and my life and a reminder to stay positive. Mr Mendoza, thank you so so much for being an amazing role model for me, thank you for making class fun and entertaining, thank you for encouraging me. I hope great things come for you. Although I’m very sad I’m going to graduate and leave soon, you will always be a happy and amazing memory in high school for me. - Annalisa
