Support Staff

Allie Robertson - Upper Grade Education Specialist -
In 2010, I began my journey as an elementary school teacher. I graduated with a bachelor’s degree from Bowie State University and Master’s degree in Special Education from Pacific Oaks College. I have taught general education, reading intervention, and special education. I am passionate about supporting students in their academic, social and emotional journey.

When I am not at work, I am spending time with my family. I have three boys (11, 9, and 5). On the weekends I coach their baseball games, we go to the beach, and watch movies. I am lucky to have grown up in San Diego and fortunate to be raising my kids in this wonderful city. I am thrilled to be working at Torrey Pines and excited for a great school year!
