Ellie Tariverdi

Head of School

“It is truly a joy for me to be connected with an organization that matches my personal philosophy.”

Ellie Tariverdi has been part of the Stratford School family for 20 years and has 22 years of experience in private elementary education. Before taking on her current role as principal at Stratford School’s Fremont Curtis campus and the Head of School for the Fremont Osgood campus, Ellie was an elementary teacher.

Ellie believes that an excellent education must include a safe and nurturing environment coupled with a challenging curriculum. Encouraging students to do their best while holding the bar high gives them the confidence to succeed socially and academically.

The curriculum at Stratford School is forward-thinking and challenging, an approach that Ellie feels prepares students to become future leaders while surrounding them with an atmosphere of love and respect.
