School Programs and Principal Leadership

-
Our role is to serve families and support school administrators and school staff.
The key leaders for schools are our principals and assistant principals. They work alongside students, staff and families to provide an incredible experience for each student, preparing them for the next step in their school progression. We value collaboration and model lifelong learning, constantly looking for ways to Engage, Educate and Empower our students for success, as well as increase our effectiveness as leaders.
We know that part of a student's success is to feel connected to their schools, and the athletics and activities programs offered from elementary, through middle school and into high school, serve as a key component of feeling connected. These extracurricular activities also provide an opportunity for students to apply and extend the learning from their classes, while also developing critical citizenship, sportsmanship and leadership skills that will prepare them for their post-high school aspirations.
