I became your Loyal Heights Elementary principal in November 2019. Every day, I am excited and enthusiastic about working together with our unbelievable students, staff, and community. My goal is to provide a rigorous education and a positive and safe space for all. I believe in a whole-child approach for every student. This means that it is both proactive and responsive to the academic and meets social-emotional. This job is important, challenging, filled with learning, and exceptionally fun and rewarding.

During the 2021-22 school year, among other efforts, I look forward to identifying and supporting students both academically and socially emotionally through our Multi-Tiered System and Supports (MTSS) process. This is especially important as students have been out of a normal year cycle of growth dating back to March 2020. I also look forward to partnering with staff, students, and the community to help our school collectively build a positive school environment. That includes being culturally responsive, inclusive, and focused on successful outcomes.

Please read my Principal Communicator emails that are sent once a week. Additionally, you can contact me via email, set up an appointment with the main office. You can also join me at one of our many community outreach events, or simply stop by to say hello when you are at Loyal Heights. Thank you for your involvement in our school and community. We are all part of the village it will take to support our young scholars.
