Dear YWA Family, Please join me in warmly welcoming Mrs. Marti Muela, who will be serving as our Interim Principal. Mrs. Muela brings extensive experience as a principal within our district and a strong track record of instructional leadership and campus development. She has already begun engaging with our school community, attending several events and quickly embracing our Warrior culture. I am confident that her leadership will provide stability and continued momentum for our campus. As a reminder, the principal position is currently posted. Once the posting period closes, we will move forward with the interview process and keep you informed of next steps. As promised, I will continue to support our campus while also beginning my work with my assigned schools. Please know that I remain available and committed to ensuring a smooth transition. If you have any questions or need support, please do not hesitate to reach out to Mr. Gomez, Mrs. Favela, and Mrs. Muela. Marti Muela- mimuela@episd.org Have a wonderful day! Dr. Ontiveros
