Larry Boone has over 30 years of experience as an educator. He has held administrative positions in Los Angeles, Ventura and San Diego Counties. In 2018, he was named principal of Dalzell Lance High School.  Mr. Boone, who grew up in South Central Los Angeles, is a firm believer that every neighborhood should have great schools. When he was a teen, his mother insisted that he and his sister ride the bus for more than an hour-and-a-half every day to attend safe, high-quality schools in the San Fernando Valley. Mr. Boone completed undergraduate studies at UCLA and became a teacher. He taught middle and high school English, humanities, health, and physical education. He also coached football, track, and cross-country. Mr. Boone earned masters' degrees from Pepperdine University and  the Principals' Leadership Institute at UCLA.

Mr. U (aka Omar Urena) has been in education for 18 years. During his first 6 years, he worked as an English/ELD teacher at a public high school in the Bay Area. For ten years, he was a teacher on special assignment as a principal assistant dealing with discipline at one of the biggest continuation schools in California in San Jose.

At a small school, people have to wear different hats so he was in charge of the sports program and coached all three sports: volleyball, basketball, and softball. At the same time, he was also a varsity basketball coach for a different school.  For the last two school years, he has been the APSS at Camino Nuevo Dalzell Lance in Los Angeles.

My name is Jessica Reyes I am the School Operations Manager at Dalzell Lance HS. I support students and families with communication with teachers and admin. I ensure that our school is safe and ready for our students, so they get the best space to learn in. I have been working with Camino for about 7 years but worked in education with other stakeholders in Camino for about 12 years. I have worn different hats and have seen many students grow from kindergarten to high school.  

I currently attend Cal Poly Pomona with a major in sociology where I will be getting my BA in Fall 2023. During my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family, I also enjoy being the assistant coach to the high school cheer team. Something I love to do to relax is take road trips with my family and partner . My office is always open, please do not hesitate to reach out to me. Even for a simple Hello. 

My name is Carlota Ramirez and I am the new college counselor at Dalzell Lance High School. I am so excited to be part of the Camino family. I have been in the education field for 20 years working with students from K-12, including separate settings in special education and English language learners. I have an undeniable passion for school counseling and always knew this was my dream job. I received my Bachelors degree in Early Childhood Education from California Baptist University and Masters degree in school counseling with a Pupil Personnel Services Credential. What I love most about the secondary high school level is student’s ability to learn more about themselves. This is a great time for students to discover their interests and plan for the future and I feel privileged to guide them on this journey.
