It is with great excitement that I introduce myself as the new Assistant Principal at California Elementary School.  I am truly honored to step into this role and I look forward to partnering with Mrs. Juergensmeyer in continuing to grow this amazing school community.  It is a privilege to have the opportunity to help lead a school with such dedicated students, staff, and a supportive school community.  

With a Bachelor's in Elementary Education, a Master’s in Educational Leadership, and an Education Specialist degree, I bring 20 years of experience as an elementary school teacher here at California Elementary.  My transition into administration came from my desire to make a positive impact on an entire school community.  As Assistant Principal, I am committed to working closely with Mrs. Juergensmeyer, our faculty, staff, and the community to carry out the vision and mission of California Elementary School.

During the year, I hope that we will work together to provide our students with the best opportunities.  I look forward to celebrating our achievements together and am always available for conversation and collaboration.  If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Sincerely, Deborah Francis
