• Assistant Principal

     

    Dear Blue Jay families,

    I am so excited to spend the school year learning and growing alongside all our little Blue Jays. As many of you know, I was a late addition to the team last year and am looking forward to starting the new school year and building relationships with our families. 

    I have worked in elementary education since 2002. My first introduction to elementary education was as a parent volunteer, which led to a position as a paraprofessional working with students with exceptional needs. I have taught first, second, fourth and fifth grades as a general education teacher. While teaching online during the pandemic, I earned my administrative credential and served as the Early Childhood Education Coordinator for the district, as well as an assistant principal at Redlands eAcademy. In April of 2023 I was relocated to Bryn Mawr to help support staff and students as we closed out the year. 

    I am a Bay Area native and have a deep love and appreciation for diversity, equity, and inclusivity. I believe we all add value to our community, and this is at the core of who I am as a person and as an educator. 

    Mr. Aleksak and I work closely together with the staff and families to create a safe and welcoming school community.

    I look forward to an amazing school year!

    In Partnership,

    Mary Pirritano

    Assistant Principal
