Principal's Message

A Warm Welcome to the School Year!

Dear Students, Parents, and Guardians,

Welcome to the 2025-2026 school year! I am Jennifer Melendrez, and I am extremely proud and excited to welcome our families to Rosalind Franklin STEM Elementary, home of the RAVENS!  

With 20 years in education, I have served as a Bilingual Teacher, Instructional Coach, High-Cap Bilingual Teacher, Spanish Reading Interventionist, Behavior Interventionist, and Assistant Principal. These roles have given me a deep understanding of education, and I am excited to begin this new chapter with you all.  

At Rosalind Franklin STEM, our mission is clear: to ignite a love for learning, foster innovative thinking, and inspire a positive impact on our global community. Our dedicated educators believe in every student's potential for greatness and are committed to supporting them every step of the way.  

As we prepare for the 21st Century, I am proud to be part of the Rosalind Franklin STEM family. Together, we will provide our students with the knowledge, skills, and experiences they need to thrive in an ever-changing world. Let’s make this school year memorable and transformative for our students.  

Here’s to a fantastic year of learning, growth, and success at Rosalind Franklin STEM Elementary!  

Jennifer Melendrez
Principal Rosalind of Franklin STEM Elementary
