Principal's Message

Welcome to Trabuco Elementary School! Trabuco boasts a rigorous academic program in a beautiful school setting, a strong community network, and an educational farm and field study program that makes this school a very unique learning experience for our students. As of the 2023-2024 school year, Trabuco Elementary is in its one hundred forty-fourth year of serving the canyon communities. We are branching toward the future, yet rooted in the past.

Trabuco families are encouraged to actively engage in our school community. The Mission Statement of our school reflects our belief that effective education results from the positive participation of classroom volunteers and contributing members of our PTA. This partnership is built on a strong foundation of commitment to student achievement, and continues to grow with effective communication between home and school. We encourage your active involvement and participation in all aspects of school life.

As the principal of Trabuco Elementary, I look forward to the continued commitment with the canyon community and the students and families of this historic school. Please contact me if you have further questions or you would like additional information about our wonderful school.

Sincerely,

Lindsey Gatfield, Ed.D

Principal, Trabuco Elementary
