Jon Alaniz, Principal 

Welcome to Poe Elementary, where everyone's an artist. I am proud to lead this beautiful campus and our thriving and diverse student body.

In addition to being a Fine Arts Magnet, Poe is an International Baccalaureate World School that focuses on guiding students in authentic and transdisciplinary learning through the framework of the Primary Years Programme.

Poe students channel their inner artists through music, dance, and the visual arts. Events throughout the school year reinforce the importance of creative expression during the elementary experience and foster a lifelong love for the arts.   

The pride of Poe is in our community - the school was founded in 1928 and is a cornerstone of the Boulevard Oaks neighborhood. The Poe faculty and staff are committed to continuing the school's legacy of high performance in all aspects of our work. Our parents and guardians are vital partners in the journey to help all students find success and confidence through education and enrichment.    

Poe Ravens leave the nest prepared for the rigors of any middle school program and embody the curiosity and eagerness needed to explore the world around them.
