Bittersweet News

It is with a heavy heart I share this news.  This evening I was approved to assume the role as assistant principal of Rockwood South Middle School.

Leaving Webster isn't easy.  You all have meant so much to me and my time here.  One of the things I am most proud of in our time together was the complete overhaul of the science and social studies curriculum.  I know neither of them are complete, but they are progressive, creative, democratic and honoring of our kids and your talents.  This community is so lucky to have each of you in the position you are in.

It wasn't an easy decision but one that I feel will help me grow as a leader.  Please know I won't be far away and will always reach out for your guidance, wisdom, support and to collaborate on projects.

Thanks for all you do and for caring for me during my time here.
