Primary Duties: As Assistant Principal of Academics, I lead McKean's Academic Initiatives in collaboration with the Guidance Department, Department Chairs, Lead Teachers, Testing Coordinators, and Teachers.  Also, I supervise McKean's AVID Program (Advancement Via Individual Determination). 

McKean Philosophy: I believe in the academic ability of all students. It is up to us, the educators, to find a way to reach our students. I take time to regularly speak with students to better understand their academic needs/viewpoints and then I advocate for those needs on a daily basis. We are building the foundation for students’ futures and I am committed to the daily detail of that work.
