Mom to an amazing human. Fiercely devoted to excellence in academics & social emotional development for ALL. Principal of #EagleNation at Eastern Middle School!
Joined September 2012
For the first time, I am able to join Eastern students onsite in NYC, filming interviews for their documentaries. Ted Madger discussed bias (or perspective) in the media & our students were brilliant! w/EaglePrideFromNYU, Principal Shorts 🦅
