George and I make up the administrative team of Wayland
Middle School. For ten years I taught
math alongside a wonderful team of teachers, many of whom are still here today.
Now, heading into my eighth year as an administrator
here, I definitely consider WMS to be my professional home. I
am thrilled to have as my professional partner, Assistant Principal George
Benzie. George is a tremendous educator
and leader. George has had extensive
teaching and administrative experience in both private and public school
settings including Roxbury, Bellingham, Wellesley, Belmont and Malden. With a
combined 40 years spent in education we
have a deep respect and understanding of the hard work that our teachers do
every day. We aim to help our teachers
reflect on their craft and think deeply about their students. George and I both truly delight in this age group of
students. Daily we experience moments
that warm our hearts. Whether it is new
sixth graders sporting their Henry,
David or Thoreau cluster T-Shirts or watching a group of 8th graders at recess
inviting a newcomer to WMS to join in a game of catch, we simply love being
with Middle Schoolers and the unpredictability that comes with it.
