Mrs. Niemeier brings a wealth of knowledge—especially with her strong background in Special Education—and uses that expertise to make our school a place where every student feels seen, supported, and inspired.
She is more than just a Principal—she's a constant presence at games, concerts, competitions, and events, cheering on our students and celebrating their accomplishments. Her compassion, care, and unwavering support make a lasting difference in the lives of our staff, students, and families.
