Ms. Zanotto

the Owl of Athena

Hello! I am Kendra Zanotto and I am excited about starting my 6th year at Loma Prieta.

I grew up in Los Gatos and live on the mountain with my husband and two children.

I have a bachelor’s degree in Political Science from Columbia University and a master’s degree in Education from San Jose State University. I am an Olympic bronze medalist from the 2004 Athens Games in the sport of synchronized swimming. I have worked with youth in athletic, educational and restorative justice settings for the past 20 years.

I can’t wait to meet all of my students and their families. Together, we will build a learning community that can meet any challenge.
