Dear Moreno Families,

I’m thrilled to welcome you to the 2025–2026 school year at Moreno AVID Academy! It’s an incredible honor to serve once again as principal of a school and community that means so much to me. Moreno holds a special place in my heart, and I couldn’t be more excited to begin another school year with our amazing students, families, and staff.

At Moreno, relationships are at the heart of everything we do. You’ll often find me out and about, whether it’s greeting students in the morning, stopping by classrooms, or joining students on the playground, because I truly believe in the power of connection. My goal is to get to know every students story and strength.

Our shared mission is to create a nurturing, inclusive environment where every student feels safe, supported, and inspired to grow. We’ll continue to focus on fostering curiosity, academic excellence, and emotional well-being while offering meaningful enrichment opportunities that support the whole child.

I look forward to partnering with you as we kick off a school year full of growth, grit, and great memories. Please know that my door is always open. If you have any questions, ideas, or just want to say hello, don’t hesitate to reach out at kimberly.martindale@omsd.net or by calling the school office at 909-445-1661.

Here’s to an amazing school year ahead; we’re better together!

Warmly,
Kimberly Martindale
Principal, Moreno AVID Academy
