At Northfield High School, we are dedicated to growing the best students, educators, and leaders to help our school and community thrive. As you may know, Mr. Brian Cochran currently serves as principal resident at Northfield. He has done a fantastic job of taking on leadership duties and ensuring that our students, staff and community meet the high goals we have in place.
As part of the DPS Learn to Lead Principal Residency program and to support candidates on their leadership journey, Mr. Cochran will embark on a two week Acting Principal Experience starting Monday, Jan. 13, and ending Monday, Jan. 27. During this time, I will be out of the building embarking on a variety of professional development opportunities to help me grow my practice as a leader for our school and community. Mr. Cochran and I are meticulously planning for this experience and I know he is ready to lead our community. In my absence, Mr. Cochran will have support from various mentors throughout DPS.
I will miss our students and staff over the two weeks I am away; but know that I am leaving them in great hands and look forward to reconnecting with our community on Tuesday, Jan. 28, when I resume my role as principal at Northfield High School.
