In my role as an educational leader, I introduced and implemented multiple initiatives related to curriculum development, professional learning, and systemic change. I received my doctorate in Educational Leadership and Policy Development from Arizona State University with a focus on leading diverse school communities.Prior to accepting the role of Area Superintendent for Zone 4, I worked as the director of the Equity Alliance at Arizona State University. In this role, I consulted with school districts in Arizona, California, and Nevada in areas related to educational equity and civil rights. It was in this role that I began my work collaborating with the Washoe County School District to support the district’s focus on culturally responsive teaching, learning, and leadership. In addition to my work in K-12 education, I’ve also taught graduate and undergraduate courses in bilingual and multicultural special education at Arizona State University, and I currently serve on the advisory board for the federally supported Regional Resource Center Program. I’ve been married to my husband Joe for 25 years, and we have 3 daughters ages 18, 22, and 23. As the Area Superintendent in Zone 4, I am honored to support the school and district communities as we work collaboratively toward the vision outlined in our district’s strategic plan: “Every child, by name and face, to graduation.” Elementary Schools Middle SchoolsHigh SchoolElementary SchoolsElmcrestHuffakerHunsbergerInclineLenzMelton PeavineSierra VistaSmithridgeTowlesVerdiWarnerWestergardWinnemuccaBillinghurstClaytonInclinePineGalenaMcQueenIncline Options ZoneExecutive Director: Michael DoeringAssistant: Irene GarciaPhone: 333-6026 Performance Zone Directory High SchoolsCharter  AACTTMCC High SchoolWashoe Adult High SchoolWashoe Innovations High SchoolWashoe Inspire Academy ACEBaileyCoral AcademyHigh Desert MontessoriICDAMariposaRainshadowSierra NV Academy           Mon, 11 Feb 2013 21:54:54 +0100 en_5070_1377_0 http://www.washoecountyschools.org/schools/area-superintendents/ Area Superintendents  Mon, 11 Feb 2013 21:54:54 +0100 en_5071_1377_0
