Principal Julie Rojo

Meet Principal Julie Rojo

Ms. Rojo has been in education over 20 years. She has taught almost every grade level, served as instructional coach, education consultant, elementary and middle school principal, and district administrator. After exploring different roles in education, she found her heart truly belongs in elementary school serving the school community as principal. 

She recently moved from California to Washington, something she’s wanted to do since graduating high school. Ms. Rojo loves watching and playing any and all sports, and is looking forward to rooting for our Seattle teams, especially the Sounders and Reign! She’ll also be catching Oregon games and following Sac State since her college kids recently became a Duck and a Hornet.

Ms. Rojo is honored to be an Apollo Rocket. It’s a gift to be able to lead such an incredible school and celebrate student achievements but also a crucial responsibility to support our student’s unique individuality and their specific needs. Ms. Rojo plans to do both.
