A message from the 2026–27 principal
Hello Sánchez Elementary Families,
I am Travis Barrett, and I am incredibly optimistic and proud to be joining you as your new principal for the 2026–27 school year. It has been a pleasure to begin connecting with many of our Sánchez families.
I am already so impressed by our talented and dedicated staff, who are committed to making this year exceptional for every student.
We are fortunate to learn and grow together at George I. Sánchez Elementary, a beautiful, newly modernized campus designed to inspire learning. With two vibrant playgrounds and classrooms filled with natural light, our school provides an engaging environment for students.
Offering both Dual Language and ESL programs, we proudly support diverse learners and foster strong communication skills.
We look forward to a successful and bright year ahead.
Travis Barrett
Principal
