I am honored to have the opportunity to be the Director of Student Services. I believe that our district has and continues “going far beyond the call of duty” to make sure our students are our priority.
I am committed to being a “Champion for all Students”. I am excited to unite my experience, my openness to learn, and my child-centered approach to support our students. Because the relationships between families and the school are vital to the success of our students, I encourage you to become involved in every way possible.
Most importantly, I bring a belief that students are at the center of all school-related decisions. I look forward to a great year!
Yours in Education,
Clyde Guerra, Jr.
