Principal's Message

It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to the 2024-2025 school year. As our Paularino Panthers return for another school year I look forward to continuing to make Paularino an amazing campus!

I am honored to be your principal and I look forward to collaborating and building partnerships with the students, staff, and the community of Paularino Elementary. I have dedicated my career to public education where I have served as an educator for 19 years. My experiences in education include education specialist, general education classroom teacher, Special Education Program Coordinator, Assistant Principal, and Interim Principal. As an educator and leader I am passionate about fostering a positive school culture and climate where every child can be successful. I share a wonderful life with my husband and two children Harrison and Thomas. I enjoy spending time with my extended family, going to Disneyland, and baking.

Our main purpose at Paularino is to ensure a safe and challenging learning environment for each and every student. Our highly qualified teaching staff use state and district curricular standards and chooses the most effective instructional strategies and methods to meet our students’ needs. At Paularino, we have specialized programs to meet the diverse needs of all our students.

On behalf of the Paularino faculty and staff, we would like to welcome you to another fun and exciting school year! I thank you in advance for all of your support and look forward to a great school year!

Sincerely,
Annalisa Schwartz, Principal
