Thank you for visiting my page!

As the Executive Director/Principal of the schools, it is my responsibility to ensure that your child's educational needs are met.  We are blessed with a highly qualified and passionate faculty and staff at each of our Sycamore campuses.  Every person employed with us demonstrates the kind of critical skills and fundamental dispositions we want to instill in our students.  Together, we are constantly reflecting on our practice in an effort to continue to learn and improve.

I am a founding member of the school and was part of the executive committee that wrote and petitioned for our charter schools.  This endeavor was a true grassroots effort to bring an innovative learning environment to the Wildomar community and later the Chino Valley community.  Now, 14 years later, we enjoy positive relationships in the communities we serve and with many other educational entities.  
 
Sycamore Academy is proud to be a truly STUDENT CENTERED organization.
