Wonderful Women of MUSD! A Women's History Month Series, Portrait #3: Jinky Bitanga, Assistant Principal at Curtner Elementary School

Name: Jinky Bitanga

Title: Assistant Principal at Curtner Elementary

Years at MUSD: I have been at MUSD for 10 years; however, I am a Milpitas Native who went to Rose, Rancho and Milpitas High School as a student.

Who is your favorite female figure or most inspirational women's history event throughout history, and why?  One of my favorite female figures is Michelle Obama because of her down to earth personality and her advocacy for many causes that promote diversity, equity, and inclusion.

What is your favorite book/movie/tv show/performance that includes a strong woman lead, and why? One of my favorite movies that include strong women leads is Hidden Figures because it tells the story of a real-life team of women mathematicians who played a crucial role in NASA’s early space program.

Please share some motivational words for our young female students at MUSD?
“There is no limit to what we, as women, can accomplish.” Michelle Obama
