Mr. Hughes has been an educator for a decade now (Madrona, South Shore, Cleveland). As a long time coach, he has created unique opportunities for Central/South Seattle student athletes, including international competition in China. Hughes has coached baseball, softball, basketball, and soccer. In 2019 he was inducted into the North American Fastpitch Association Coaches Hall of Fame.
Hughes has three daughters that played softball at Garfield (in 2019 Garfield won the state championship with many players Hughes coached with Seattle Spice Inner City).
Hughes was a local attorney before beginning his career in education. Athletics has always been a huge focus, as Hughes played football at Univ. of San Diego and was a cheerleader at Univ. of New Mexico.
Hughes has focused on increasing participation for Eagle student athletes and in 2019 brought in two new sports: girls bowling and slowpitch softball.
When Hughes is not coaching/teaching, you can find him fishing on his kayak, hanging with his family, or protesting in the streets for Black Lives Matter.
Hi all, my name is isaura jiménez guerra (they/them) and I go by Mx. jiménez guerra.
This is my first year at Cleveland. I have spent the last 12 years working alongside young people and their families in South King County as a youth organizer, a case manager, and most recently as a teacher. I'm excited to join our school community as an 11th grade humanities teacher and a 9th grade advisory teacher.

These are extraordinary times that while riddled with heartache, trauma, and growing inequalities, are also times that are filled with hope and possibility. It is my goal and my duty as an educator - particularly as an educator of color who teaches young people of color - to help those young people uncover their truths and manifest their dreams so that they feel empowered to liberate themselves and the world.
I'm entering my 6th year as an educator and am officially claiming the title of an abolitionist teacher, which means I am committed to...'the practice of working in solidarity with communities of color while drawing on the imagination, creativity, refusal, (re)membering, visionary thinking, healing, rebellious spirit, boldness, determination, and subversiveness of abolitionists to eradicate injustice in and outside of schools' (Dr. Bettina Love -- We Want To Do More Than Survive: Abolitionist Teaching and the Pursuit of Educational Freedom).
I am excited to be a part of the Cleveland community - go Eagles!
