OCTOBER IS NATIONAL PRINCIPALS MONTH!
This month, Riverview School District is celebrating our incredible principals. Join us as we highlight our outstanding leaders, starting with Carnation Elementary School Principal, Michelle Frank!
Principal Frank has been with RSD for six years and is now in her second year as Principal at Carnation Elementary. Before joining RSD, she worked in Colorado Springs as a school counselor for 17 years and as a Dean of Students for two years. She then moved to Washington, where she served as a principal in Federal Way for six years.
When asked what she loves most about the Riverview School District, Principal Frank said, “the small community where everyone takes care of each other.”
