Meet the Principal

Dear Manchester Families,

As we begin another exciting school year, I want to take a moment to express how grateful I am to continue serving as Principal of Manchester Avenue Elementary School. Entering my third year at Manchester, I remain honored to be part of such a dedicated and supportive community.

 

As a proud product of LAUSD, I bring more than 25+ years of experience in education, having served as a teacher, coordinator, and assistant principal. These experiences have reinforced my commitment to ensuring that every student receives the support and opportunities they need to succeed academically, socially, emotionally, and culturally.

 

As principal, I view my role as an instructional leader who works alongside teachers and staff to provide the best possible learning environment for our students. They remain at the center of every decision we make. I firmly believe in the potential of every Manchester student and know that our children can achieve at high levels and compete with the very best across our city.

 

I am excited to continue building on the successes we have achieved together and to work alongside our families, staff, and community partners as we pursue a shared vision of excellence. Together, we will ensure that Manchester remains a place where every student feels valued, supported, and inspired to reach their fullest potential.

Thank you for your continued partnership and trust. I look forward to another successful and rewarding school year.

 

With gratitude,

Elizabeth Magallanes
Principal
Manchester Avenue Elementary School
