About Northwoods Hills Elementary

  • Welcome, and thank you for visiting the NHE website!

    Hello, I am Ishii Tavarez, principal at Northwood Hills. I am beyond excited to lead such a dedicated staff here at NHE! We aim to grow our wonderful students daily and give them experiences and 21st century learning tools that will enable them to be successful in the future. We have a giving and supportive community that we are proud to call home!

    Prior to beginning my principalship at NHE, I served students in RISD as an assistant principal, instructional specialist, and teacher.

    I graduated on the President’s List from Texas Tech University with a B.S. in Human Development with a concentration on Early Childhood Development. I earned my M.E. in Educational Administration from Lamar University.

    When not at NHE, I love spending time with my friends and family. I love to travel and experience new things.

    If you have any questions about NHE, or if you are interested in learning more, please feel free to contact me. I welcome all opportunities to show my NHE Falcon pride!
