A priority as Dean of Students is to support positive, constructive, and transparent communication with staff, students, parents, and community members. I moved to Essex in December, making me more accessible to have conversations and become emersed in the community.

The district is financially stable ($1.2 million of unspent budget authority) and offers a wide variety of curricular and extra-curricular opportunities. We continue to have internal conversations and explore partnerships with other PK - 12 districts and post-secondary institutions to expand opportunities for students. The district recently received grant awards to support research-based literacy instruction and professional development for staff.
