Administration

2025 Admin Team
Erika Agosto, Principal
 
With 30 years of experience in education across elementary, middle, and high school levels, I have served as a teacher, counselor, and administrator. My journey from a mischevious student to an educator was shaped by the guidance of strong mentors who showed me the power of education to open doors and provide choices.  Today, my goal is to be that guiding force for students, helping them discover the same possibilities that once helped shape my path.

Myrna Foster, Vice Principal (Middle School-High School)

 
Myrna Foster is a vice prinicpal at Norton Science & Language Academy. Maiden name of Balmaceda, Myrna was born and raised in Ciudad Obregón Sonora, México. From a very young age, she realized she wanted to become an educator. Myrna inherited from her father the love and passion for education, students and their families, and the commitment to molding these young lives.
 
Myrna held her first teaching job in México at the age of 19.  She had just graduated as Executive Assistant at the time and worked as an English-Spanish grammar and shorthand teacher for 5 years at two different schools (CONALEP and Instituto Metopolitano).
 
She was then handed the opportunity to move to the United States where she received her Spanish Bachelors’ Degree at Cal State University, Dominguez Hills, her teaching credential and Master in Education from Azusa Pacific University, and her Master in Educational Administration from Cal State University, San Bernardino. Myrna has been in the classroom for 17 years and truly loved every minute of it.
 
About 10 years ago, she made the move to pursue her Administrative Credential and with the support of great mentors and friends, she was successful. Mrs. Foster has now been an Administrator for seven years, five of which have been here at Norton Science and Language Academy.
 
"Helping others is my passion and the loves of my life are my two children." - Ms. Foster
