THIS IS A "B" WEEK SO FRIDAY IS A "B" DAY
NO SCHOOL MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, LABOR DAY
Dear Classen Family,
With Dr. Porter’s arrival in Oklahoma City and his commitment to all
students in the Oklahoma City Public Schools, I have been offered and
accepted a new challenge which will allow me the opportunity to serve the
school district in a broader manner. I will be involved in curriculum
development that will enhance learner outcomes in our high schools and help
to build leadership capacity within the ranks of our new and assistant
principals. This exciting opportunity comes at this time with the urgency to
make significant gains in student performance.
My departure comes with the assurance that a highly qualified replacement
will be sought through a search process to provide the appropriate
leadership fit for the Classen Learning Community. Ms. Valerie Harris,
Assistant Principal for the International Baccalaureate Program, will serve
as Acting Principal until a permanent replacement is found. I will continue
to assist the Classen team during the transition period.
I would like to thank all of the Classen Family, students, parents and
community members for their unfailing support during my nine year tenure as
principal of Classen School of Advanced Studies. I appreciate the
opportunity of serving the students and watching them grow in their academic
and personal lives. Please know I will forever treasure this special part of
my career and will always hold the Classen Family in highest regards. I will
continue to watch Classen’s progress with pride and wish each of you the
best in the near future and beyond.
Warmest Personal Regards,
Ronald M. Maxfield, Ed.D.
