It is with great excitement that I begin my seventh year as Chancellor of Grand Prairie Collegiate Institute. This year also marks my 27th year as an educator, and I continue to feel the same joy and passion for student success that I did when I first began my career. Serving as a teacher, counselor, and dean has given me a deep appreciation for the hard work and dedication it takes from students, families, and staff to create a truly exceptional school community.

Since its founding in 2013, GPCI has established a strong tradition of academic excellence and innovation. Our mission has always been to prepare students to become world-class scholars, and I am proud of the remarkable achievements our scholars have accomplished through perseverance, collaboration, and support from their families and teachers.

As we look ahead to this school year, I am inspired by the opportunities for growth and learning that lie before us. I know that our scholars will continue to rise to the challenge, and I am committed to ensuring they are equipped with the tools, knowledge, and confidence to succeed both in school and beyond.

I want to thank you for choosing GPCI and for trusting us with your child’s education. Your partnership and involvement are invaluable in creating the kind of school community where students thrive. My door is always open, and I encourage you to reach out, connect, and work alongside us as we continue this journey together.

Together, I know we will make this a truly outstanding year for our scholars, families, and community.
