Principal Ken Essay

Hello Harriet Bishop parents/guardians, students, staff, and community members!
My name is Ken Essay and I have the honor and privilege to be the Principal at this amazing building! I am so excited to have the opportunity to work alongside all of you this upcoming school year. I am beginning my third year at Harriet Bishop. My passion and purpose is working with individuals to help us find and embrace our strengths through this journey we call K-12 education. #StrengthBasedSchool
As the principal of Harriet Bishop Elementary School, I am committed to furthering our district’s mission to empower learners, energize achievement, embrace community, and ensure that each student is Real-World-Ready. I believe that we can close gaps and raise achievement for all students! I am a strong believer in building positive interpersonal relationships, working as a collaborative member of a team, and above all, doing what is best for all students and families. I look forward to working in partnership with our entire community to ensure our students have a high quality educational experience and access to resources that will foster their personal, social, and academic growth.
