We had a fantastic time at our Spring Carnival, Gator Palooza! 🎡🐊 From the carnival games and activities to the exciting auction, the entire evening was filled with laughter, fun, and school spirit. It was wonderful to see so many of our students, families, and staff members together enjoying such a special event. Moments like these truly highlight the strength of our school community. A special thank you to our amazing PTO and the many dedicated volunteers who worked so hard behind the scenes to make this event possible. Your time, energy, and commitment to our school make experiences like this possible for our students and families. We are so grateful for our incredible Gator community!

It’s been a minute since I’ve posted here — and life has been full in the best way. I’m officially serving as an Assistant Principal, and this season has stretched me, challenged me, and sharpened my leadership in ways I didn’t expect. I care deeply about building systems that support teachers, creating strong campus culture, and making sure every student feels known. Recently, our students participated in the American Heart Association’s Kids Heart Challenge — our top fundraisers earned the opportunity to slime me as the sliming was broadcasted live on Gator News. It was messy, loud, and absolutely worth it. Moments like that remind me that leadership is about presence, joy, and modeling what it means to show up for your school community. Leadership isn’t about the title — it’s about service. Excited to reconnect here and share more about what I’m learning along the way.
