Meet The Principal

Welcome to Wirtz Elementary School

It is both an honor and a privilege to join the Wirtz community as your new principal. I look forward to partnering with our outstanding students, dedicated staff, and supportive families as we continue building a school where every child feels valued, challenged, and inspired to reach their full potential. Together, we will foster a safe, welcoming environment where curiosity, kindness, and a love of learning help every student thrive.

I bring more than 25 years of experience in elementary education and instructional leadership, including service as a classroom teacher, instructional coach, and elementary principal. Throughout my career, I have remained committed to instructional excellence, educational equity, and strong partnerships with families and the community. I am excited to become part of the Paramount Unified family and look forward to getting to know each of you as we work together to support every Wirtz student on their journey toward success.

We know that strong partnerships with families are essential to student success. I encourage you to stay connected, ask questions, and take an active role in your child’s education. Together, we can ensure that every student reaches their full potential. Thank you for being a valued part of the Wirtz Elementary community. I look forward to a wonderful year of learning and growth.

Warm regards,

Jennifer Romero, Principal
