What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters collaboration, innovation, and professional growth in educational leadership.

Hello, I'm LaSondra Smith, an aspiring principal with a Master of Education in Educational Administration. My journey in education has been driven by a passion for enhancing instruction and improving school operations to create safe and conducive learning environments for all students.

Currently, I serve as an Assistant Principal at High Pointe Elementary, where I lead STEMSpired trainings and coordinate campus testing programs. My experience as an Academic Interventionist has equipped me with the skills to provide targeted educational interventions and support for students, ensuring they achieve their academic goals. I am committed to fostering collaboration among educators to analyze assessment data and enhance student performance.

With a strong foundation in instructional leadership and a dedication to professional development, I am eager to contribute to a school community that values innovation, inclusivity, and student success. I believe in the power of education to transform lives and am excited about the opportunity to lead and inspire others in this vital field.
