We are excited to welcome Jodi Granado as the new Principal of the Ann Richards School for Young Women Leaders.

Jodi brings nearly 16 years of experience in education, serving students and families as a teacher, graduation coach, and school leader across Central Texas. Most recently, she served as Assistant Principal at LASA, where she helped foster a culture of academic excellence and student success.

As a first-generation college graduate, Jodi's commitment to creating opportunities for young people is deeply personal. Her leadership is grounded in relationship-building, high expectations, and ensuring every student feels seen, valued, and empowered to reach their full potential.

"What inspires me most about the Ann Richards School is that we get to build a place where young women won't ever have to wonder if they belong because they'll know it from the moment they step through the door."

We look forward to partnering with Jodi as we continue preparing our Stars to become the courageous young women leaders our world needs.

Please join us in welcoming Jodi to the Ann Richards School community.
