IDEA Montopolis

Her journey with Montopolis Academy began in 2016 as an Academic Counselor and that fulfilling experience led to a Principal in Residence role in 2018. In each of my roles at Montopolis Academy, she has sought to ensure the success of students and the school by providing quality instruction, fostering a culture of achievement, building community, celebrating diversity and advocating for supports to ensure learning is equitable for all. Similarly, it is her number one priority as Principal to ensure that every student receives outstanding instruction from top-notch and valued teachers, as well as unique opportunities that empower students to develop character, value community, cultivate passions, and explore the world outside of the classroom. As the principal at Montopolis Academy, she is committed to ensuring that student needs and interests help drive instructional decisions, and opportunities made available.

Desiree holds and models a strong belief that all students deserve an equal opportunity to a quality education. She is a first-generation college graduate with a Master’s in Education Administration. Desiree has served our IDEA families both in the lower valley, San Antonio and the Austin Region with a passion for academic excellence and commitment to college for all.
