Marissa Peña, EdD - Principal
It is my pleasure to serve as the Principal of Burke Elementary. I received my Bachelors Degree from The University of Texas at Austin, Masters at Texas State University, and Doctorate at The University of Texas at San Antonio. This is my 20th year in education, and most recently served as the Vice Principal at Burke. I have two children, Jacob and Ava, who are my world. We also have 3 dogs, a cockatiel, and a guinea pig.
As Principal, my goal is to ensure that students feel both safe and loved while at school. Burke is an amazing place to be, and I'm so happy to be a part of this community.
