Words cannot express how completely humbled I was to be named the @LamarCISD Secondary Principal of the Year by my colleagues today. I work with SO many deserving leaders (I SEE YOU and ALL YOU DO FOR KIDS) I do not take this for granted and I am so grateful for your kindness. ❤️

Grateful and proud…22 years of campus leadership complete! The principal title may end, but my passion to inspire and connect is just getting started.

- Principals...Be the ONE...so your campus can thrive...not just survive! 🙌🏼
- A3: Breathe some life back into the building! Surprising staff when they return is my favorite! 😍#stafffamilytree #walldecals #CelebratED
- A1: Parents! We have implemented a Dads on Duty Club this year for our middle school! Such a bonus with our 675 6th graders! 2-5 Dad shownup daily just to help and be a presence! #Leadlap
- Sometimes we have to trust a plan that we DIDN’T expect & embrace the pace of our NEXT journey...like joining another side of the Ranch (and my inaugural RMS Class of Longhorns-the incoming seniors) as the George Ranch HS Principal for the 19-20 school year. #WeAreGR #fullcircle
- The absolute best “feel good” thing I have seen all year! @BrianRandle40 your dad @DrThomasRandle is so proud of you! ❤️🏆 @RandleFootball 2024 5A State Champions! 🏆 #TeamLCISD
- People often say they want the job…but if you ever wonder what it takes to be the Principal here you go…finally on your one week vacay but you still must set your campus up for success! It’s not about what’s easy for adults…it’s about what’s best for kids.✌🏼#notfortheweak
- #GReatness loading! Congrats, Coach Dutch, on being named the FIRST female LCISD Campus Athletic Coordinator! Coach Dutch is no stranger to the Ranch, as she has a strong record of success and plenty of energy for all things GR! Who's going to join the dream team? #WeAreGR
- A4: That I made it through my first HS graduation in the middle of a pandemic! Most of this class of seniors were my FIRST group of 6th graders...some I had since Kinder..full circle moment for me. LOVE these kids...special night for all of us!! 🎓❤️ #2020strong #CelebratED
- Check out those @Dr_RNivens moves! Thanks for bringing your positive mojo and having a little fun with us today! @LamarCISD is lucky to have ya! #WeAreGR #BeTheOne #ComebackSoon
00:00 - When you’ve had “a week” and you are caught off guard and surprised with this....you might (make that definitely) cry like a big baby. #planforsuccesspin #LamarCISD #humbledandblessedadmin
- Congratulations to Ramsa Kazi -@WeAreGRHS 2020 Valedictorian and Melford Spiff-Rufus @WeAreGRHS 2020 Salutatorian! #WeAreGR
- As a Principal “MOM” I spend a lot of time taking care of 2400+ kids to the very best of of my ability…and sometimes I miss out on just being a parent. Thankful for a hubby that makes sure Soph feels included when work duty calls! ❤️#balanceisastruggle #tryingtogivingmyselfgrace
