Meet Principal Erin McKee!
Hi, Falcon families! My favorite part of being a principal is greeting our students each morning. A few fun facts about me: If I could only eat one cuisine for the rest of my life, it would be Japanese food. My bucket list includes attending a Beyoncé concert. I’m really good at parallel parking.
Responsible Citizenship
Students will understand and respect their freedoms and responsibilities as members of the ISD community and global world at large. They will move forward in all aspects of their lives by applying the ethical and equitable values fostered in their education.
Comprehensive Awareness
Students will receive extensive social-emotional support each year of their educational career. In addition, they will learn life skills to support all aspects of their growth, including collaboration, goal setting, physical health, creativity, and resilience.
