Principal's Corner
Dear Laura Ward Elementary Community,
I am so honored and thrilled to introduce myself as the Interim principal of Laura Ward STEM School. I am honored to have been selected to join the Ward school family, which is known for its dedication to excellence and academic success. Over the past 20 years, I have worked as an elementary school teacher, lead teacher, mentor, and most recently assistant principal and principal. These experiences have prepared me to be a well-rounded Instructional Leader.
I am excited and eager to bring my skills as an educational leader to Ward and work with you as a partner in education to ensure your child’s success. Along with teachers and staff, I will continue the legacy of success established at Ward by building strong relationships with parents, students, and community partners.
During the coming weeks, I look forward to visiting all classrooms, working together with teachers in continuing to support learning opportunities for students, and building relationships with the Ward school community.
I am confident that working together, we will continue taking Ward STEM from good to great. As your school leader, I welcome your input and feedback. If you ever have a question or concern, please don’t hesitate to contact me at smfinley-jones@cpse.edu
Educationally yours,
Shenann Finley-Jones
Interim Principal
