Welcome to New Berlin Eisenhower! I am humbled and honored to serve as principal of this fine school. I have had the distinct pleasure of serving as an administrator at New Berlin Eisenhower since 2007.
Our commitment is to provide a safe and intellectually challenging environment that will empower students to become innovative thinkers, creative problem solvers, and inspired learners prepared to thrive in the colleges and careers of their choice. I am passionate about establishing and fostering learning environments that are student-centered, collaborative, flexible, and prepare all learners to succeed in their chosen future endeavors.
Regarding my own educational path, following graduation from my undergraduate program in English and Secondary Education from the School of Education at Boston College, I taught English at a high school in Boston. For nearly a decade I taught a variety of subjects and coached several sports. During that incredible experience I earned my master’s degree in educational administration from Emmanuel College. In 2007, along with my wife, I moved to Wisconsin and was offered the chance to join the School District of New Berlin. Although at times I miss the classroom, it is a privilege to work with the Eisenhower staff, students, parents, and community. I believe it to be an honor to be entrusted to educate our students, and one not to be taken lightly.
Eisenhower has a rich and long standing history of high standards and expectations for each student in regard to academic performance, co-curricular participation, and responsible citizenship. It is with pride that we hold these high standards and ask all in our community to commit to maintaining the extraordinary record of achievement and contribution that has been the legacy of New Berlin Eisenhower. With the contribution of our entire community, we will continually improve and serve our students..
I invite you to consider how you can help us support and educate the students of Eisenhower. Please feel free to contact me at any time if you think that I can be of service to you, your student, our school, and our community.
