09/16/24, Emily Marshall, CTE Curriculum Specialist, I am honored to compose this letter of recommendation for Amanda Greene, who is seeking the principal position at McEwen High School. As an accomplished educator and district leader, I have had the privilege of collaborating closely with Amanda and have personally observed the outstanding qualities that make her an exceptional candidate for this role. Mrs. Greene has devoted 16 years of exemplary service to McEwen, showcasing not only her unwavering dedication to education but also her profound ties to the school and community. Her leadership is unmistakable in the diverse roles she has undertaken, from orchestrating community events like Veterans Day and proms, to coaching athletic teams, and spearheading fundraising endeavors that have directly enriched student programs. Her adeptness at organizing and rallying the community is a true testament to her steadfast commitment to enhancing McEwen for the betterment of students, families, and staff. Amanda's exceptional dedication to student success and teacher support sets her apart. She has consistently mentored and supported new teachers, fostering a collaborative and inclusive environment. Her strategic thinking and strong organizational skills enable her to manage complex tasks while upholding a clear vision of educational excellence. Her experience with data-driven instruction, along with her ability to connect with others, ensure that she will continue to drive McEwen toward success. With a decade of educational experience in a K-12 community school and as a parent of current students, I have witnessed the profound impact of effective leadership at this level. The choice of a school leader is one of the most crucial decisions a community school can make. It is imperative to find someone who not only upholds the school's traditions but also embodies true leadership within the community, faculty, and student body. Only an individual who has fully immersed themselves - and their entire family - in the school and invested in its culture can truly comprehend the far-reaching consequences of their decisions. A leader, like Mrs. Greene, who is deeply rooted in the school's ethos, will ensure that decisions are made thoughtfully, fostering growth while honoring the school's core values and traditions, and maintaining the strong community support she has garnered over the last 16 years. I am fully confident that Amanda Greene's exceptional leadership will serve as a great source of inspiration for both students and teachers at McEwen High School. Her vision, experience, and compassion for the McEwen community make her an ideal candidate for principal. I wholeheartedly endorse her for this position and firmly believe she is the candidate to make a powerful impact.
