A message from the 2026–27 principal
Dear Wooldridge Elementary families,
I am truly honored and excited to join Wooldridge Elementary School as your new principal.
We are the Mighty Quails, a symbol of love, passion and new beginnings since our opening in 1969. As we look ahead, 2026 marks an exciting new chapter for Wooldridge.
We have brought together a team of exceptional educators from across Austin who are committed to developing students’ responsibility, confidence and a lifelong love of learning.
I look forward to partnering with our families and community as we continue building a strong foundation for every child.
With appreciation,
Nicholas Martinez
Principal
