Dr. Wendy CastaƱeda-Leal

Dear Semitropic Community,

I consider it a true privilege to have been appointed Superintendent of the Semitropic School District. I would like to express my gratitude to our Board of Trustees and share that my commitment to our community is to work on behalf of all of our students and staff. The Semitropic School District strives for academic excellence as we reflect the community dream that all students will graduate from Semitropic with options for future endeavors. We follow our guiding principles of having high expectations and rigorous curriculums, creating positive and nurturing school environments, and having schools where families are welcomed and respected. I am eager to foster and cultivate relationships with our teachers and staff, students, families, and educational partners to ensure the continued success of our students, schools, and community. I am extremely excited about the work ahead of us and believe that we all play an important role in the education of our children. While serving as your Superintendent, I will maintain open lines of communication with all our partners. I encourage and welcome any questions, comments, and/or concerns about our school or departments. I can be reached at (661) 758-6412 (O), (559)-759-6127 (C) or wcastanedaleal@semitropicschool.org

This is an exciting time for the Semitropic School community. I look forward to meeting staff, students, families, and community partners in the weeks ahead.

Sincerely,

Dr. Wendy Castaneda Leal, Superintendent
