Dear Clyde-Green Springs CommUNITY,

As we prepare for the start of an exciting new school year, it is my privilege to welcome you to the start of the 2022-2023 school year and officially introduce myself. I consider this a true honor to serve as your new Superintendent of Schools. For those who don’t know me, I am a lifetime citizen of Clyde, and I’m excited to be back with Clyde-Green Springs Schools after spending the first 10 years of my career at McPherson Middle School as a teacher. Being selected by our Board of Education to serve you all is a dream come true. This is a place that I have called home for four decades and there is something truly satisfying and uplifting about being here with the people and places that are near and dear to my heart.

I’m particularly excited to rejoin a school district that is so deeply focused on providing an elite educational experience for every student. Much has been accomplished in CGS over the years, and there is still work to be done. From principals leading and supporting teachers, to engaged parents who are involved in their child’s education, and community members investing in and supporting the education of the workforce of tomorrow — together we will ensure a school community of high expectations of all children with high outcomes for every student.

Please know that we will serve you and your family with confidence, compassion, and courage. Join us in the most honorable and important work of our time. Together, we can build a model school district for our kids, our staff, and for our CGS CommUNITY!
