Welcome to Elizabeth Learning Center, a place where every child is known, valued, loved, and inspired to reach their highest potential.
As Principal of Elizabeth Learning Center, it is one of the greatest honors of my life to serve our students and families from Transitional Kindergarten through 12th grade.
Over the past six years, I have had the extraordinary privilege of watching our youngest learners take their first steps into school, grow into confident middle school students, and celebrate the graduation of my first freshman class in 2025. These moments remind me every day that ELC is more than a school, it is a family.
I am deeply grateful for the remarkable people who make our community so special. Our talented teachers bring expertise, passion, and unwavering dedication to their classrooms. Our Building and Grounds Team creates a safe, beautiful, and welcoming campus where students can thrive. Our Parent Volunteers and PTO generously give their time, energy, and heart to strengthen our school community. Together, we create a culture where every student feels a sense of belonging and every family has a voice.
At Elizabeth Learning Center, our unique TK-12 model allows students to grow within a supportive community that nurtures academic excellence, character, creativity, critical thinking, collaboration, and lifelong learning. We believe every child has limitless potential, and through strong partnerships between school and home, we help students develop the knowledge, confidence, and compassion needed to succeed in college, career, and life.
Our collective commitment to student success is reflected in our recent achievements. Between 2025 and 2026, our students demonstrated remarkable growth, including a 29% English Learner reclassification rate exceeding LAUSD's goal by 7%, 82-point growth in mathematics, 13-point growth in English Language Arts, 5-point growth in science, and 43% of students missing fewer than seven days of school of 181 school days. These accomplishments are more than numbers. They represent the perseverance of our students, the dedication of our educators, the support of our families, and the strength of our ELC community.
As we look to the future, we remain committed to empowering every student to dream boldly, achieve excellence, and make meaningful contributions to an ever-changing world. Together, we will continue building a school community where every child feels seen, celebrated, and prepared to lead with purpose. Thank you for providing me with this opportunity!
