Joanna Jensen - Assistant Principal
Welcome to Mission San Jose High School. I'm excited to work with MSJ community as Assistant Principal. I have worked with Fremont Unified School District at Mission San Jose High School the past six years as a school counselor and am thrilled to begin my seventh year in this new role. I look forward to getting to know the students, staff, parents and great Mission community better as Assistant Principal.
I went into education with the belied that all students should have opportunities to learn and grow to become engaged members or our society. I earned a B.A. in Sociology with a Minor Criminal Justice from Sonoma State University and my M.S. in Educational Counseling from National University. Most recently, I earned a certificate in School Violence and Culture as I am always looking forward for opportunities to enhance my knowledge in various areas.
I am a strong believer in self care and know that we cannot have great accomplishments without taking care of ourselves. One of my favorite activities outside of the school day is dance. I grew up in a dance studio and now have the privilege to share my knowledge of tap, jazz, and ballet with children of all ages. I really encourage all students to find an activity outside of school that keeps them active and promotes self care.
This year I am assigned to assist all 11th-grade students and 9th-grade students with the last names M-Z. I'm looking forward to a wonderful school year ahead. Be sure to stop by my office to say hi!
