Mrs. Strain, Principal

Mr. Foster, Assistant Principal

I am a lifelong learner and never want to stop. Reading is my passion; travel should be my middle name. Most of all, I have dedicated myself to this profession since 1985 and would not trade it for anything. It is an honor and a privelege to work alongside such a dedicated, caring group of individuals. I am happy to be part of this family.
