Our Principal
Jesús Celaya, Ph.D.Contact Dr. Celaya by email
I am the longest tenured principal in Pima County and I started my principalship at Drachman in 2006. I obtained my Ph.D. in 2003 from the University of Arizona. My own children have and will attend Drachman, as well as other Drachman staff members, and we consider ourselves a true family of educators. We are a Montessori “Magnet School of Distinction” as defined by the Magnet Schools of America Organization.
