Davitta Hernández Zócalo College Prep 6–12 founder
Meet Our Funder
With more than 27 years of dedicated service in education, our funder brings a deep commitment to student success and community growth. Having served as a teacher, academic coach, school leader, and founding principal, she has consistently worked to create meaningful opportunities for students at every level.
A proud long-term resident of Tolleson, her roots run deep in the community. As a first-generation college graduate who grew up in a rural farming area in the far West Valley, she understands firsthand the power of education to transform lives. That perspective continues to shape her vision and drive.
As a parent of three college students, her passion for education is both professional and personal. She is committed to building a new 6–12 school in Tolleson—one that is full of opportunity, innovation, and pathways for every student to succeed.
