Superintendent’s Message

                 After 30 years in education as a general education teacher, special education teacher, special education administrator, principal of a charter school, and a special programs director, I am excited to advance to the level of superintendent.  I am confident that my positive and enthusiastic leadership qualities will add to my abilities to articulate vision and lead staff, students, parents, and the community toward that vision.  My philosophy is to create a working atmosphere that is productive, professional, and of high quality, but I also want people to enjoy the climate and like what they are doing.  I offer trust and respect as an education leader who emphasizes compliance with state and federal law as well as furthering the potential of ALL learners.

                Thank you for the opportunity to serve as the instructional leader of Clatskanie School District.  I wish you the most enjoyable and successful school year yet.  I look forward to an exciting year of watching our fine students learn, achieve, and grow.
