A word from Principal
“I believe, earnest effort is needed from every single individual and unit. We are all tiny cogs in a giant machine, but each part is vitally important. If one cog stops functioning, the whole machinery comes to standstill. As Principal, I use all tools available to inspire staff, students and community to work together to promote student achievement.All staff, students and community should feel valued and appreciated at college.”
