Introducing myself
5/12/2021Hello Sunnyside!
I am so thrilled to be chosen as your new principal. I have known about Sunnyside and the good work that is being done there since I came into the district 12 years ago. As the principal of the Odyssey program, I know first hand how special our choice option programs are and I am really looking forward to getting to know the Sunnyside program, staff, students, and families.
As we get to know each other, I will share with you more about my vision for leadership, my unwavering commitment to equity, and my advocacy for all students. As a teacher, I worked most of my career teaching high school in Brooklyn, NY and I keep with me today the lessons I learned there from the students I was lucky enough to teach. As an administrator I am first and foremost centered on authentic relationships and how we can work together to establish relationships of trust that benefit the students and the community. I wrote my dissertation about teacher transformation and how true transformation only happens with critical reflection, relationships of trust, and true collaboration. I am excited to collaborate with you.
I am a native Oregonian and a Mom of two kids who both attend Portland Public Schools. I am looking forward to getting to know you all over the next few months and I encourage you to reach out to me. I know we will have an opportunity to meet each other soon and please feel free to introduce yourselves via email in the meantime.I know the past year has been a huge lift for educators and families, and I also know that you have worked long and hard to meet your students' needs. Thanks for all you do and I am so excited to work with you!
