Welcome Genoa - Kingston High School Families. I am proud to have been part of G-K schools for the past 17 years and look forward to working with high school students, families, and staff.
Anyone who has spoken with me knows I care about our students' positive educational experience, social-emotional, and academic success. I look forward to working with your students and playing a part in helping them excel and contribute to our community.
So many strides have been made over their school careers, and I am excited to help then accomplish more. It has always been a privilege to be part of the G-K Schools community. Go COGs and have a great summer.

Summer is upon us? Not yet!!!
No Time for counting down. Too much left to do.
I don't usually do countdowns. Life is too short to be wasting away today wishing for tomorrow. However, it is human nature to look forward to certain events, opportunities, or times of the year.
Recently, I have begun hearing whispers on the breeze. Perhaps a student smiling and telling me only this many days to go. A parent casually stating x number weeks left. A teacher commenting on how quickly the year is flying by. My son at home making plans for a sports camp the first week off of school. Countdown time? No way!
We are fortunate at G-K schools to have been working diligently and continuously on mapping effective, standards base curriculum for all classes - for the entire year. Skills taught and refined in the latter months of the school year are vital for student learning and preparation for what lies ahead this year and next.
All that work continues into June and beyond.
When the time comes, we will wish all our families a happy and safe summer. But, not now. Too much important learning to do and great experiences for kids to have here at GKMS!
