Principal

Isaac Walko
Greetings,
I am honored to serve as the Principal of Pantano High School. As an Arizona native, I spent my early years in the small town of Sedona before moving to Tucson to attend the University of Arizona. For the last 13 years, I have been blessed to call Vail my home while working in this incredible school district. In that time, I have been continually inspired by the strength of our community and the dedication of parents, district staff, and community members in supporting our students. That collective commitment to our youth is the foundation of Pantano High School, where we strive to create an environment that fosters growth, resilience, and success for every student.
The dedicated team of educators and staff at Pantano are exceptionally gifted individuals who lead with heart in everything they do. They have created a school culture that both nurtures and challenges students, helping them discover their potential as they prepare for life after high school. Pantano is a place like no other—a place where hope is reborn, and students rediscover success.
I look forward to continuing to serve this community and working together to ensure Pantano remains a place where students thrive and futures are built.
Sincerely,
Isaac Walko
