“We wanted every student who came to Los Altos High School to feel as though he or she belonged in that community. We did everything we could to make sure that the campus was a welcoming place for everyone and that starts with basic safety, but it also starts with valuing all kids. I tried to do that on a personal level by meeting kids, by knowing their names. These are typical things that I think high school principals really work toward, but I also try to find a project for myself every year where I would work with a small number of students.”
