Carmela Lovano

Carmela Lovano’s career spans over 42 years in various capacities in Catholic schools.  Teaching has always been her passion. One of her mentors at CSULA encouraged her to always teach as if her own child was in the classroom. These words stuck with her as she taught primary grades and established a kindergarten program. Ten years ago Mrs. Lovano enthusiastically accepted a leadership position which led to Immaculate Conception STEM Academy. Immaculate Conception STEM Academy serves students from TK (transitional-kindergarten) through eighth grade. As a proud member of the ADLA STEM Network, her goal is to inspire and challenge students to answer complex questions, investigate global issues, and develop solutions for real-world problems utilizing science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. 

Carmela Lovano is presently the principal at Immaculate Conception STEM Academy and looks forward to being a mentor principal for Onward Leaders and part of the ADLA STEM Network in 2020-2021.
