Miss. Cho brings a wonderful energy, a heart for student growth, and a beautiful full-circle Wylie pride to our inaugural staff. A proud graduate of Wylie East High School, Class of 2017, she went on to attend The University of Texas at Dallas.

Miss. Cho was inspired to become an educator by the lasting impact of her own past teachers, especially her 4th-grade teacher, Mr. Peri. He taught her that approaching challenges with a positive mindset can make all the difference, and that lesson shapes how she leads her own classroom today. She is dedicated to helping her Raiders build true confidence and believe in themselves both inside and outside the classroom. As we open our doors, she is most looking forward to connecting with her students, seeing familiar faces, and creating special new school traditions!

Outside of the classroom, Miss. Cho loves staying active and finding creative ways to recharge. For fun, you can find her building LEGO sets, dancing in Zumba classes, or relaxing with a great movie marathon.
