Your leadership is exemplary of being purpose driven. You focus on asking the "why" questions to determine what direction to take. Your "family first" priority determines how to take it. Thanks for shining your focus on taking the CES family to the next level.
Sincerely,

Your love, compassion, dedication and inspiration to CES students and staff is commendable. I am thankful for all of your support, encouragement and kindness throughout my years at CES. You show amazing leadership everyday and with every situation. A great leader isn't about having power "over" others, but about instilling power "in" others.

Love,

Thank you so much for all of the love and determination you bring to your role as principal. In my  vocabulary lessons with 5th grade this year I needed an illustration of "wise" and I used you to explain to the kids how experience makes you such a wise principal. I appreciate all of the support you give us in our roles so that together we can bless all of our students and watch them learn to shine their lights.
God bless you for all you do!

It is one thing to be a boss, another thing to be a mentor but a completely different thing to be a leader. I am grateful to be led by a principal who cares about CHILDREN!!

I will always be grateful for the support, kindness and understanding you have given me throughout my mom’s continued illness! You are a blessing in my life...Thank you for ALWAYS sharing your light! 😊
