The eight years spent serving this incredible community and collaborating with such amazing individuals like yourselves will forever hold a cherished place in my heart.

Serving the community where I was raised and lived in for roughly thirty years has been an absolute privilege. Together, we’ve achieved significant milestones, fostered an environment of growth, and prioritized the success and well-being of our students. Our work to deepen our vision and mission of a personalized learning environment through the implementation of evidence-based instructional practices has created a strong foundation to the RSD House. Your dedication, commitment, and unwavering support have been the backbone of our collective achievements towards these ends.

This decision was not an easy one. The relationships built and the shared experiences we’ve had make departing a bittersweet moment. I want to express my deepest gratitude to each one of you for your hard work, passion, and relentless dedication to our students.
