🙌👏 Two principals in Chesterfield County Public Schools are among 31 educational leaders selected for a new program designed to recognize the achievements of Virginia principals. Congratulations to Dr. Randi Smith of Ettrick Elementary and Dr. Amanda Voelker of James River High for being named Principals of Distinction. Created by the Virginia Department of Education, Virginia Association of Secondary School Principals and Virginia Association of Elementary School Principals, the program celebrates the contributions of principals and seeks to inspire others within the educational community. The selection process for the inaugural Principals of Distinction focused on applicants with strong leadership in improved student achievement, effective instructional leadership and developing a school environment that fosters the removal of nonacademic barriers. The program includes a professional training symposium in October and a capstone project at each principal’s school over the next six months.
Way to go, Amanda. Well deserved
Congratulations to you both!
Huge congratulations!
Dr. Smith interviewed me for my present job - didn't even identify her title and couldn't have been nicer. Truly a class act and a rare breed. Bravo!
Congratulations to the two Doctors, this is what we call servant leadership will soon join you in the Doctoral cadre.
Parents and teachers are proud of both of you! Thank you for choosing CCPS!
Yay Amanda!!!💜💚
