Principal's Message

Welcome to Alvarado, home of the "All Stars"!

It is with great excitement and gratitude that I join you as the new principal of Alvarado Elementary. I am honored to serve this incredible school and to partner with you in supporting the success of every student.

I have had the privilege of serving in the Long Beach Unified School District as an elementary teacher, middle school teacher, and administrator at the TK–8 level. Each of these experiences has deepened my belief in the power of strong relationships, high expectations, and a commitment to equity in creating joyful and rigorous learning opportunities for all children.

I am truly looking forward to getting to know our students, staff, and families, and to building on the strong foundation that already exists here at Alvarado. Together, we will continue to nurture a safe, inclusive, and student-centered learning environment where every child can thrive.

Dr. Kolb, Principal
