The 2007-2008 school year is my second at Medina Elementary and my 13th in the Bellevue School District. I feel very fortunate to have the privilege of working in this district and with this community. We have a terrific group of talented, dedicated, and caring staff here at school and a wonderfully supportive parent community. We are also extremely lucky to have such a wonderful group of students here who strive to do their best every day as learners and as young citizens.
Prior to becoming part of the Medina community, I was the Assistant Principal at Sammamish High School, and before that, I taught at Bellevue High School. Previous to my work in Education and very much in preparation for the demands of the field, I was a Wildland Fire Fighter.
In my career with the Bellevue School District, I have been continually challenged, impressed, and inspired by our work with students. I am fully committed to our joint goals of ensuring that every student leaves our school with the tools they need to succeed at the next level of learning, and that they are able to be accepted into and succeed in the college and field of their choice. In addition, one of the very important goals of education is to help each person become a positive, productive member of our democratic society. As a whole community, we understand the necessity and the urgency of these goals and we also appreciate the joy that comes from working with our wonderful children.
Every human being has the ability to learn and grow at high levels – to be great. I’m proud and thankful to be part of this work at Medina. Go Tigers! |
