South Side School

Hello South Side School Families,

I’m thrilled and grateful to officially join South Side School as your new elementary principal! Dr. Huber has been incredibly supportive throughout this transition, and I’m eager to begin the new school year with all of you.

With 11 years of experience as an elementary principal in Bristol and 29 years in education working with students from elementary through high school, I’m deeply committed to serving our school community. I look forward to listening, learning, and growing alongside our students, families, staff, and community as we begin this exciting new chapter together.
