I continue to be honored and excited to be a member of the Magazine Rattler Family. As your District Curriculum and Federal Programs Administrator, I look forward each day to strengthening the relationships that I have begun building with all of our wonderful students, families, teachers and talented staff.
During my years in public education, I have had the opportunity to serve my alma mater and my hometown as a teacher, elementary school principal, high school principal and now district curriculum and federal programs administrator. It is a pleasure and a blessing to partner with you on a journey to continue serving the children and families of the Magazine community.
Each and every day, we continue our commitment to helping all children develop intellectually, academically, socially, emotionally, and physically so that they will be prepared to effectively negotiate the demands associated with living in an ever-changing world. Beyond the rigors of their academic program, it is our aim to instill within each student the essential principles of pride, respect and responsibility so that they will become productive and contributing members of our society.
High expectations, which have been established by our qualified and dedicated staff, are maintained while also providing a safe and nurturing student-centered community. At Magazine Schools, we strive to make the learning process a positive and rewarding experience while maintaining a desire to develop a generation of inquisitive young people who will become lifelong students in their various pursuits of excellence.
It’s exciting to work with the active and involved parents that help to make Magazine Schools a wonderful place for our students to learn and grow. I look forward to continuing to do all that I can to support their efforts and encourage you to continue to be active in your child’s education. So that you are informed, please visit our website and social media outlets for the most up-to-date information about our school and Rattler Family!
Please know that I am always available to discuss any questions or concerns related to serving you and the children of Magazine Schools. Everyone at Magazine Schools is looking forward to another productive and rewarding school year as we work with your child and family.
As always ...Once a Rattler, Always as Rattler! Rattler Family!
