Dear DCE Families,

It is with great excitement that I write to you  to introduce myself as the new principal of Denton Creek Elementary. I am truly honored to join this wonderful community and look forward to collaborating with you to ensure an enriching and successful school experience for your children.

I have served most recently as a Language Acquisition Specialist in Coppell ISD since 2023. Previous to working in Coppell ISD, I have served as a principal, assistant principal and district administrator in surrounding districts including serving as a principal at a Dual Language campus and as a bilingual teacher. 

I am passionate about education and dedicated to the academic and personal growth of each student. I believe that strong partnerships between parents, teachers, and administrators are essential to creating a nurturing and effective school environment. Your support and involvement are invaluable as we work together to provide the best possible education for your children. Together, we can continue to build a vibrant and thriving school community where every student feels valued and empowered to achieve their full potential.

I am truly grateful for the opportunity to lead such a fantastic school, and I look forward to many outstanding years ahead with you all.

I am excited to work together to make this a wonderful school year!

Sincerely,

Dr. Yanet Cardoza
