Howe High School is synonymous with excellence, and I look forward to helping build upon that legacy. I am eager to lead our students and staff. My desire is to bring energy and excitement to all that we do for the best possible academic, athletic, and citizenship outcomes through clear vision, communication, trust, and strong leadership. Every one of our students- EVERY ONE OF THEM- should know they have great potential, they have value, and belong at home at Howe High School! We will explore every avenue possible for students to develop and grow according to their unique attributes as we prepare them for fulfilling futures through technology, instruction, and opportunity.
