    MONROVIA, Calif.--On June 25, the Monrovia Unified School District
    Board of Education appointed Dr. Tamar Kataroyan as the new principal
    of Mayflower Elementary School in Monrovia, Calif.

    Dr. Kataroyan started her early years in Fresno, Calif., where she
    attended the Armenian Community School of Fresno. At a young age she
    was a very active member of Homenetmen and AYF Fresno Chapters, and
    was a participant in the yearly Navasartian games. In high school
    Tamar played both varsity basketball and tennis and was named a 4-year
    scholar athlete. Due to her accomplishments, she earned a full ride
    Division 1 scholarship to the University of California Irvine. She
    graduated from UCI as a scholar athlete in 2001 earning a bachelor's
    degree in both economics and sociology with a minor in management.

    Tamar began her educational career teaching 3rd grade at Ari Guiragos
    Armenian School in Orange County. During her first year of teaching,
    Tamar knew education and helping the youth was her passion. She
    continued her career by earning her Masters in Educational
    Administration, along with her teaching and administrative credentials
    from Fresno State University. During that time she was a high school
    teacher and varsity basketball coach at Clovis East High School in
    Fresno.

    Shortly after, Tamar became an administrator at Glendale High School.
    She served as a Dean of Attendance for one year and an Assistant
    Principal at both Crescenta Valley High School and Glendale High for 7
    years.

    During her years in the Los Angeles area, she was an active member in
    the Armenian Community. She joined the Los Angeles Homenetmen
    Basketball team winning 9 championships at the Navasartian games. She
    also participated in several Pan Armenian World and Pan Homenetmen
    Games in Yervan, New Jersey and Greece. She was named the Most
    Valuable Player by the Central Homenetmen organizing committee in
    Athens, Greece.

    Dr. Kataroyan is an energetic, hard-working, kind hearted individual
    who truly has a passion and heart for helping kids and those around
    her.

    We congratulate Dr. Kataroyan for her newly appointed position as
    principal and wish her success in the years to come.
