Administration

Monica Muñoz Principal

My name is Monica Muñoz, and I look forward to what will be an exciting new school year! I am originally from Chicago, where I taught and led bilingual programming in Chicago Public Schools for 18 years. I have taught all grade levels, from second through eighth, in both Spanish and English. I have been the principal of East Elementary for over five years. I am married and am a mother of two sons. I love the outdoors, traveling, and decorating my home. I also enjoy working with and learning from my colleagues, our Zion 6 families, and students. Our students at East bring me great joy, and I feel privileged to be a part of their dual-language educational experience. The work I do is centered around high academic expectations, linguistic opportunity, and, more than anything, love and respect for all.
