Meet the Manager

Dr. Nancy J. L.

Manager

More than 30 years ago TES founder, Dr. Nancy J. Lavelle, started a special education school in Alhambra, CA– the Almansor Center – because she believed that every child, even though deemed «difficult to teach» was a «pearl» and that with dedication and persistence she could illuminate the potential within him/​her. Since its inception the school has grown to offer early education, special education, mental health, transition and adult, and community outreach services while staying true to its child-​centric roots. Moreover, along with the expansion of services, this growth also led to the creation of TES in 1997.

During the 1990s there was a shift in the educational landscape that saw the privatization of education, and specifically, the popularity of education management companies. To meet this demand, Lavelle founded TES in order to manage her institute and offer the same quality services as those in her school but to a larger population.
