Message from the Principal
I am proud and honored to serve as the Principal of Ventura Park Elementary School. Amazing students, families, and staff are what make serving at Ventura Park such a joy. At Ventura Park we work collectively every day to ensure that all students reach their fullest potential.
This year we are continuing to focus on implementing rigorous, standards-based instruction, personalizing instruction to meet every students’ needs, reflecting on our data-driven cycles for continuous improvement, and creating a joyful culture for learning.
We look forward to continuing to partner with families and the community to ensure academic success for all of our students. As I have heard, student success is all about teamwork. One third comes from staff, one third comes from students and one third comes from families. Together, we’ve got this!
