Hello

A letter from our Mayor

I’m a woman of few words, but I wish to express my deepest gratitude for being chosen to lead this fine institution. I have worked with students for the past 20 years and I really feel all these years have prepared me to take on this key role. I'm honored to help shape young minds and fortunate to have such a dedicated staff by my side.
