Meet our New School Principal, Ms. Jennifer Avila
Ms. Avila has been an educator for 22 years. Her journey began as a middle school dual language teacher in one of our neighboring school districts. Her experience continued to grow when she joined Socorro ISD in 2003 as a 4th grade bilingual teacher at Vista Del Sol. Ms. Avila became the Literacy Leader at that campus.
During her time at Vista Del Sol, Ms. Avila was named Campus Teacher of the Year and Sam’s Teacher of the Year as well. Ms. Avila went on to become a Bilingual/ESL Instructional Specialist in 2005 at the District Service Center and eventually the Director of Bilingual Education. After spending 11 years in the Bilingual department, she was named Assistant Principal at Eastlake HS where she remained until 2019. Most recently, Ms. Avila served as principal at Campestre Elementary.
Ms. Avila has three children, and they have all been proud graduates from SISD schools. She is dedicated and committed to serve the needs of the students, faculty, and staff at John Drugan as the next campus principal. Ms. Avila is inspired and driven to make it her mission to lead a strong professional learning community that will focus on three things: learning for all, team collaboration, and leading with heart. Ms. Avila feels extremely blessed and honored to join the Drugan Dragon Lair!
