Hello, and thank you for visiting Marshall Public Schools’ website!  I’m excited to serve as Marshall Public Schools Superintendent of schools!  I have worked for Marshall Public Schools for more than 20 years; I have served as a Spanish Teacher at the High School, the Assistant Principal at both the ALC and the High School, the Principal at West Side Elementary, and more recently as the Director of Teaching and Learning before accepting the position of Superintendent.  These varied experiences have given me an understanding of many aspects of our District that will help me as we work together toward our vision “To be the premier school district where every student is inspired every day.” 

While the world is still facing this global pandemic, and this fall will not bring with it a full return to “normal”; we will continue to closely monitor MDE, CDC, and MDH guidelines as we determine the safest way to come back together and “Inspire” every day!  We continue to work to find ways to meet the needs of all our learners in an equitable way, including Social-Emotional and Academic needs.  Our action plan this fall is to not introduce any new initiatives, but to focus on what we do well and how to do it even better.  We will look at best practice instructional strategies this year and work to continue meeting each student where they are at.  The staff and families of Marshall Public Schools are second to none, and together we will continue to face this challenge. I know we’ll come out even better on the other side!
