Valerie Arce - Principal
My name is Valerie Arce and I am excited to serve this community, staff, and students. I look forward to getting to know your children and working together with you to help them grow and learn.
I received my Bachelors in Interdisciplinary Studies in 2008 and my Masters in Educational Leadership in 2014, both from UTSA. This is my 11th year in Northside ISD. I began my teaching career at Knowlton Elementary where I taught second, third, fourth, and fifth grade bilingual students. In addition to that, I served as the campus Language Support Teacher for two years. I have spent the last five years as the Vice Principal of Cole Elementary. Now, I am humbled and honored to serve as the Principal of Timberwilde Elementary.
I am passionate about ensuring that our students are receiving a high quality education and that their social and emotional health is being nurtured so that they may be able to set goals, make responsible decisions, and reach their full potential. My number one goal is to build strong relationships with the students, staff, and community of Timberwilde Elementary. I wholeheartedly believe that in order for our students to be successful we have to focus on teaching the whole child by developing their social and emotional skills, and this starts with building relationships and trust.
