Superintendent

As Superintendent of the Warren City Schools, it is my honor to welcome you to our district.  As an educator in Warren City Schools for 27 years, I have been a Elementary School Teacher, Middle School Assistant Principal, Elementary Principal, PK-8 Lead Principal, High School Curriculum Supervisor of School Improvement, Associate Superintendent and currently Superintendent/Chief Executive Officer.   These experiences in our district have prepared me to better understand the academic and social needs of our students, their families and our community.

The Warren City Schools continues to work with support from the Ohio Department of Education and Workforce to create goals and action steps designed to improve student academic success in many ways.  Together with our staff we have created our District One Plan to address how we plan to achieve our goal.  Each of our five buildings have also developed a Building Focused Plan in alignment with the goals of our district.

Currently, The Warren City School District offers Preschool programs at all four of our PK-8 buildings and Warren G. Harding High School. Warren City Schools is committed to supporting our youngest learners! Children ages three and four years old begin their learning experience in one of our schools.  This is an important first step towards improving overall student academic success.

All teachers and administrators are receiving targeted professional development in the Science of Reading to support the diverse needs of ALL students.  Our administrators are tasked with monitoring evidence based instruction in all classrooms.

Our middle schools are a place where students refine academic skills, discover their talents and participate in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) exploration.  Additionally, our students are being supported by our Skill and Support Classrooms (SSC) which are designed to address behavioral and social-emotional concerns that interfere with learning.  Students referred to the SSC receive intervention to better support their needs with goals of returning back to the academic classroom in a timely manner.  These goals are consistent with our District Goals and Social Emotional Learning initiatives.

One of our areas of focus at Warren G. Harding High School is transitioning our ninth grade students from middle school to high school. We believe that starting the high school experience correctly will yield success for the years to come. Additionally, our centralized high school offers programs and experiences superior to other educational experiences. Our Advanced Placements and College Credit Plus courses, Athletics, Robotics team, and WSCN-TV are just a sample of the outstanding experiences students participate in at Warren G. Harding High School.

As Superintendent of the Warren City Schools, it is important to me that the academic success of our students continues to improve over the next several years.  All of our students deserve a high quality educational experience, an experience that starts with preschool opportunities and, over their academic experience, prepares them for College, Career Readiness and beyond.
