Teresita De La Torre
Assistant Principal
Bernalillo Public Schools


I am an Assistant Principal and Site Test Coordinator at Bernalillo Elementary School in Bernalillo, New Mexico. I also have 14 years of experience as a bilingual Speech-Language Pathologist, serving diverse student populations throughout New Mexico. My professional background in special education, school testing, and administration has strengthened my commitment to educational equity, inclusive practices, and supporting educators in meeting the needs of all students. Appointed as Site Test Coordinator in October 2025, my experience coordinating school testing, combined with my background in special education and administration, inspired me to create a quick reference guide to help educators better understand the connection between special education, accommodations, modifications, and state and district testing requirements. My goal in this project is to provide educators with a practical resource that promotes clarity, consistency, and confidence in supporting students and meeting their individual needs.
