Mrs. Stephanie Coronado

Howdy Valley Ranch Wrangler families!

I am thrilled to be the Principal at Valley Ranch Elementary! VRE is a campus where students and faculty love learning. VRE is known as "The Ranch", here at the ranch we believe that students should feel loved, respected and safe. We hold high expectations for all of our students and faculty as we are passionate about putting students first. VRE takes pride in partnering with our parents and community to celebrate the growth of our student's character and their academic successes.

My Core Beliefs are Communication, Collaboration, Connections, Continuous Learning, and Culture. I believe these 5 C's are the core to success. I strive every day to build these within myself and to share them with others. It takes all of us working together to meet our students where they are and take them to the next level of learning. Working together we can do what is needed for the students! 

I have previously served as a District Administrator, Principal, Assistant Principal, and Teacher.  I hold a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Houston Clear Lake and a Masters Degree in Educational Leadership from Stephen F. Austin State University. 

Please contact me if you have any questions. I look forward to meeting and working with each of you!

Mrs. Terri Trout

Howdy Valley Ranch Elementary Families! 
 
I am thrilled to begin my third year as one of your Assistant Principals at Valley Ranch Elementary.  The "RANCH" has truly become my school home, and my main focus is to ensure that all our Wranglers' needs are met and that they feel loved and supported each day they spend on campus. 
 
Over the past twelve years, I have had the privilege of serving in various roles within NCISD, including teacher, team lead, and Assistant Principal. My educational background includes a Master of Education in School Leadership from Sam Houston State University and a Bachelor of Science in Communication Studies with a minor in Early Childhood Education from Ashford University. 
 
One of my passions is helping others grow and discover their strengths through collaboration, communication, and inspiration. It is important to encourage and instill in each of our Wranglers the joy of learning and the desire to be lifelong learners. 
 
As Albert Einstein wisely said, "Education is not the learning of facts, but the training of the mind to think." This year, our focus is on teaching our Wranglers how to handle situations that just don't go right - instead of giving up, we will encourage them to explore alternative solutions and head left!
 
I look forward to an incredible year filled with growth, learning, and memorable experiences for our Wranglers. Let's work together to make this school year a remarkable one.

Howdy, Valley Ranch Families! 

Remember, "Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm." - Ralph Waldo Emerson. With this quote in mind, I would like to introduce myself as your newest Assistant Principal at VRE. It is with great excitement and honor that I join this wonderful school community, and I am eager to work with each of you in providing a nurturing and enriching educational experience for your children. 

Allow me to share a little about myself. I bring 16 years of experience in education, with a strong focus on elementary education. My educational background includes a Master of Education in School Counseling from University of St. Thomas and a Bachelor of Science in Early Childhood Education from Sam Houston State University. The first 10 years of my career were spent in the classroom, with the privilege of providing dual language, gifted and talented, and project-based learning experiences to many bright young minds. Since receiving my administrator certification, I have spent the past 6 years as an assistant principal. These experiences have provided me with valuable insights into creating a positive and engaging learning environment that fosters growth and success. 

As one of your Assistant Principals, my main goal is to support our school's mission of academic excellence, while ensuring the safety, well-being, and happiness of each student. I am committed to fostering strong relationships with students, parents, and staff members, as open communication and collaboration are key to our collective success. 

In the coming weeks, I look forward to meeting each of you personally during various school events and activities. I am eager to hear your thoughts, feedback, and ideas as we work together to provide the best possible educational experience for your children. Together, we can create an environment that promotes academic achievement, character development, and a love for lifelong learning. 

Thank you for entrusting me with the important task of supporting your child's education. I am confident that together we will make a positive difference in the lives of our students. 

Wishing you and your family a fantastic school year filled with growth, joy, and success!
