Meet Our Founder: A Champion for Change


Elena is more than just the founder of Gettis Exceptional Education—she is a visionary, a trailblazer, and a relentless advocate for children with special needs. With an unwavering commitment to transforming special education in the Dominican Republic, Elena has dedicated her life to ensuring that every child, regardless of ability, receives the support, respect, and opportunities they deserve.

From the very start, Elena recognized the vast challenges facing special education in the Dominican Republic. She saw classrooms unequipped for neurodivergent students, teachers lacking specialized training, and families struggling to find the right resources for their children. Rather than accept these obstacles as insurmountable, she set out on a mission to change the landscape of special education—one school, one teacher, and one child at a time.

A Vision of Inclusion and Excellence

Elena’s dream is not just to improve education—it is to redefine it. She believes in a world where children with autism, ADHD, and other learning differences are not sidelined but embraced; where educators are empowered with the tools and training to support every student; and where families no longer have to fight for their children’s right to learn.

Her vision for Gettis Exceptional Education is bold and transformational:

• Creating a New Standard: Through specialized training programs, Gettis is equipping teachers with the skills to build inclusive, effective learning environments.

• Empowering Educators: By offering workshops, professional development, and real-world classroom strategies, Elena is ensuring that teachers have the expertise they need to uplift every child.

• Providing Hands-On Support: Through consulting and collaboration, she is helping schools design individualized education plans, implement classroom accommodations, and foster a culture of understanding.

• Building a Future of Possibilities: Gettis is not just about today’s classrooms—it’s about shaping a future where all children in the Dominican Republic can thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.

More Than a Mission—A Movement

Under Elena’s leadership, Gettis Exceptional Education is not just an initiative—it’s a revolution. A movement toward dignity, respect, and opportunity for every child. A movement that calls on educators, parents, and communities to stand together and commit to change.

Through her relentless passion and drive, Elena is proving that education is not a privilege—it is a right. And she won’t stop until every special needs child in the Dominican Republic has the resources, support, and love they deserve.
