Dear Lucile Souders Families,
It is indeed an honor to serve as the Instructional Leader of Lucile Souders Elementary School. The teaching staff at Souders is focused on providing students with high-yield strategies that will facilitate grade-level proficiency for all. This means utilizing resources that meet the demands of the standards, taking measures to monitor and adjust instruction based on data, and developing instructional activities that are engaging, relevant, and rigorous. School faculty, families, and community partners must all take responsibility for the educational process of our scholars to help students maximize their potential. We welcome our stakeholders to take an active role by volunteering, attending family engagement activities, and staying abreast of pertinent matters concerning students' education. Together, we will make a difference!

Dear Dolphin parents, students, and staff,
I am very happy to serve as Lucile Souders’ Assistant Principal. It has been my experience that schools work best when the entire community rallies together to support students’ social, emotional, academic and physical growth, and Lucile Souders is definitely that place. I am thrilled to be a part of this wonderful community of dynamic teachers and staff who are all “Champions for Children”. As we approach this school year with a growth mindset, we will create a culture that values continuous improvement via intentional goal setting and reflective thinking. I look forward to working collaboratively with you during the school year as our Dolphin family continues to foster a positive school climate where all staff and students achieve personal success.
