Katie's HeadshotI am honored to step into the role of superintendent/principal for the upcoming 2025–26 school year, having previously served as the principal at Skamania School. With 16 years of experience in education, including five years at Skamania, I can sincerely say that this is a place I deeply cherish. One of the things I love most about our school is the strong sense of community we have. Every staff member knows every student by name, and the family-like atmosphere makes Skamania truly special.

My husband, Raymond, and I have three wonderful children—Emmalyn, Levi, and Landon—who keep our home lively and full of energy. When I’m not at school, you can usually find me on the baseball or softball field, cheering on one of my kids or spending time outdoors with my family.

My philosophy of education centers on the belief that every child deserves a nurturing and supportive environment where they can thrive. I am committed to fostering a love for learning, encouraging curiosity, and helping each student discover their unique strengths. Education should be a collaborative journey, where educators, families, and the community work together to support our students’ growth and development. I look forward to continuing to support and nurture our students in every way I can.
