I am so pleased and proud to be named the principal of the best K-8 school, Horace Mann. Already being part of the Husky Nation, I know how special and how important the students, parents, staff, and community are to the overall educational development of our children.
We have a long tradition of academic excellence, as well as a commitment to teaching strong moral values and positive leadership. I am excited to partner with our outstanding PTA, School Site Council, and highly-trained staff to ensure that Horace Mann continues to be the most wonderful community school ever.
It is my intent to continue to provide a nurturing environment for all our students to flourish both academically and socially. This year will be brilliant as we move into the future together! Go Huskies!
