Meet the Director

She loves to share her culture with the Spanish Schoolhouse families. Veronica is proud to lead her team of dedicated and creative teachers, as they work together to build a positive foundation of learning for each and every student.
History
The concept for Spanish Schoolhouse began in 1999 with a goal of helping children learn the Spanish language at a young age. We started with weekly Spanish lessons for small groups of children in a home in Plano, Texas and as word spread, we added summer camps. In 2003, we proudly opened the first Spanish Schoolhouse immersion preschool, enabling us to provide the gift of a second language to children during their optimal language learning years.
Over twenty years later, we have grown and expanded with campuses throughout the Dallas/Fort Worth and Houston areas. We offer part-time and full-time Preschool and Kindergarten programs, as well as Summer Camps, Mommy & Me programs, and After School classes for elementary-aged students.
We are proud to have educated more than 20,000 children through our programs, empowering them with the Spanish language and cultural awareness to create a bright future for themselves and the world!

Josie Gerber
FOUNDER
Josie Gerber was born and raised in Lima, Peru. She studied graphic design and owned her own small business in Lima before moving to the U.S. in 1990. Being bilingual and raising her own children with both English and Spanish, Josie experienced how natural it is for children to learn and speak two (or more!) languages. She felt strongly that language learning and cultural awareness were gifts that she could share with many children.
As a founder of Spanish Schoolhouse, Josie values the opportunity to help students realize the advantages of bilingualism by providing an active learning environment and curriculum in Spanish. She is proud of Spanish Schoolhouse's role in giving children a strong base for future academic success while empowering them with cultural awareness to help build a brighter future. -
Emmett Marsh
FOUNDER
Mónica Ramirez is originally from Mexico City. She holds an engineering degree in computer science, a field she worked in for several years before moving to the U.S. in 1995. Because her children were born in Texas, her mission was to provide them with the privilege of a multicultural education, to give them a better appreciation of people's different backgrounds, and to help them become more compassionate citizens.
As a founder of Spanish Schoolhouse, Monica aspires to give this privilege to as many children as possible. She believes that being multilingual is the best asset a person can have in this global, competitive world. She is proud to be a part of building this legacy for generations to come. -
