Swapan Bhattacharya (26) is Ionna's sculpting teacher. He is a second-generation American, and both his parents are Bangladeshi-American. Swapan graduated from the Massachusetts College of Art and Design with a degree in sculpting. He excelled in art history, especially. Swapan decided to move to Fresno after graduation, planning to become a high school advanced art teacher. But when he travelled to visit his big sister in Boston and got to see her eleven year-old son, he realized he wanted to teach fourth and fifth grade. Luckily for him, Stanford Elementary had just implemented a new sculpting program and were looking for a teacher, an opening he quickly applied for and accepted. Though new, Swapan's class has a lot of fans, Ionna among them.

Becca Renata Albuquerque (29) is Purnima's assistant. She has been a vet tech at Purnima's clinic for nine years, and has gained a close professional relationship with her. Becca has severe dyslexia, and exclusively attended schools for children with learning disabilites until she went to community college. For most of her childhood, Becca longed to be a veterinarian herself, but opted out of it because of her disability. Now that she's built up her savings, she's planning on going to the University of Vermont - Burlington, an in-state college with excellent assistance for dyslexic students. The only people who know are her roommate and her parents - she's yet to tell Purnima, and is honestly quite nervous about it.

Born and raised in Boston, Leah comes from a long line of educators: her father is an anthropology professor, her mother is a high school English teacher, and her grandmother was a teacher as well. Leah loves fashion and make-up as much as she loves history, and has done formal and prom makeup for both of her teenaged cousins. Leah's kindness towards and rapport with her students has cemented her place as student-favorite, though some teachers find her a little too relaxed. A few of them even consider her to be unprofessional, but Leah doesn't let that bother her. She knows her worth as a teacher and the impact she's making on these students' lives. Though she loves kids, Leah has none of her own. She recently got engaged on a trip to Atlanta.
