Principal's Message

Montemalaga Elementary School serves a unique and culturally diverse population of students who consistently demonstrate high academic achievement in a nurturing environment.  Our beautiful library reinforces the message that we celebrate reading and writing while our STEM lab focuses on building engineering skills utilizing the most recent technology throughout the curriculum. We are proud to be a California Distinguished School and a National Blue Ribbon School. We attribute our success to the strong educational team we have developed among all members of our community, including teachers, parents, students, staff and the principal. We work together to ensure that all students succeed both academically and emotionally. Our goal is for students to become lifelong learners and live as responsible citizens who respect all individuals and make positive contributions inside and outside of the classroom.
