Melissa De Hoyos - Principal
Melissa De Hoyos - Principal
Hello, Adams Hill Patriots! My name is Melissa De Hoyos, and I am proud to serve as the Principal of Adams Hill Elementary.

I began my journey as a principal in July 2021, serving as Principal of Locke Hill Elementary before joining the Adams Hill community. Prior to becoming a principal, I served as the Associate Principal of Carson Elementary for six years and as a teacher at Esparza Elementary for ten years. During my time in the classroom, I taught kindergarten, second, and third grade.

I was born and raised in San Antonio, Texas, and attended Northside ISD schools for elementary and middle school. I come from a family of educators. My mother is a retired NISD teacher, and my brother is a high school teacher in Southwest ISD. I have a true passion for working with elementary students and value the opportunity to build positive relationships with our students, families, and staff.

I am excited to be part of the Adams Hill community and look forward to building upon the great things that make our school such a special place. If I can ever be of service, please donโ€™t hesitate to reach out.
