Welcome from the New Principal!

Dear Bitely Elementary parents, students, and staff,

I am thrilled to introduce myself as the Acting Principal of Bitely Elementary School.  It is with great enthusiasm that I step into this role committed to fostering a positive learning environment where every student can reach their full potential and every staff member can do their job, knowing that they will be supported in every way possible. 

With 32 plus years of experience in education; as a teacher, academic coach, program specialist, and principal, I bring a plethora of experience and passion for student learning, collaboration, and building strong relationships within our school community.  I believe in creating a place where all students feel valued, supported, and challenged to achieve their academic and personal best.

Over the coming weeks, I look forward to getting to know you, listening to your perspectives, and working together to build upon the strong foundation already established here at Bitely Elementary.  Please do not hesitate to reach out to me with any questions or concerns. 

Sincerely, 

Martin Garcia

Acting Principal, Arlene Bitely Elementary School
