I have been proud to serve as the principal at Sherman Oaks Community Charter School for the past two years. I will be leaving for personal reasons and my last day working for the Campbell Union School District will be June 30, 2010. The Campbell Union School District and Sherman Oaks will be with me as I embark on new adventures.

On my new journey, I will pack a trio.  First, I take the children’s genuine smiles, warm hugs, talented minds and kind hearts. Second, I take Jerome’s ambitious task of changing the world, one child at the time; his willingness to stand up for what is right, his constant love for all children; his complex simplicity and his proud humility. Third, from the adults at Sherman Oaks, I take their positive presuppositions, good intentions, dedication, commitment to excellence, and their belief in children.

Let me sum up that it has been a privilege to have served you and to know that Sherman Oaks is on its way to continued success. I will pursue my own success on uncharted territory. As I take with me from you a great trio, I offer you my own trio: a true heart, great memories and the honor of having been your principal.

Sincerely,

Irene Preciado

Principal
