October is National Principals Month! Today, we are celebrating Megan Hockaday, Principal, at Pasco Digital Learning Academy (PDLA).

Megan loves providing a unique learning option for students who need it. In PDLA’s nontraditional setting, students have opportunities to pursue their goals along a path that supports their individual needs.

At PDLA, success takes many forms. Improved engagement and attendance, perseverance, completed credits and progress toward individual goals are all worth celebrating. Sometimes, success means doing something today that felt difficult yesterday.

Two words that describe PDLA are connected and community. They reflect the relationships and support that help students feel they belong, wherever they learn.

Megan’s message to every student is: “You belong here. No matter where you are starting, what challenges you’ve faced or what your path looks like, you are seen, you are valued, and we believe in your ability to grow.”

Thank you, Megan, for your leadership and commitment to the PDLA community!

October is National Principals Month! Today, we are celebrating Raquel Martinez, Principal; Shelly Crump, Eric Christensen and Bambi Pescasio, Assistant Principals; and Tyler Hockaday, Athletic Director, at Sageview High School.

Sageview’s leadership team loves the students, staff and families who make their school special. Students demonstrate LEAD behaviors, staff bring innovative ideas and a willingness to improve systems, and parents volunteer to support the school’s 4 A’s: Academics, Athletics, Activities and Arts.

At Sageview, students earn Minga Points for demonstrating LEAD behaviors, participating in the 4 A’s and joining schoolwide activities. Points can be used at the Pack Shack Student Store. Grade levels also set shared academic goals, such as GPA or STAR growth, and choose how to celebrate when they reach them.

One word that describes Sageview is unified. Through the Principal Student Action Council, students help shape celebrations, strengthen school culture and identify opportunities for growth.

Their message to every student is: “Your voice is pivotal to our work. We want to make decisions with you. Join us at lunch, meet our admin team, share what’s working and what needs to grow, and help shape Sageview.”

Thank you, Raquel, Shelly, Eric, Bambi and Tyler, for your leadership and commitment to the Sageview community!

October is National Principals Month! Today, we are celebrating Veronica Machado, Principal; Alejandra Mendoza, Danielle Sharpe, and Maria Keaney, Assistant Principals; and Greg Domingos, Athletic Director, at Pasco High School.

Pasco High’s leadership team loves working with students and watching them grow, discover more about themselves and prepare for life after high school. They also appreciate the staff’s commitment to providing the support students need to succeed.

At PHS, families receive ParentSquare messages every two weeks celebrating their student’s academic success. Honor Roll recognition takes place each trimester, and Golden Bulldog awards give each department an opportunity to acknowledge students based on its success indicators.

One word at the heart of Pasco High is belong. It reflects a commitment to helping every Bulldog feel connected and supported as they work toward their future.

Their message to every student is: “It’s never too early to set a goal for life after high school, whether that means college, a university or a career. Share your goals with us so we can help guide and support you. You can do it!”

Thank you, Veronica, Alejandra, Danielle, Maria and Greg, for your leadership and commitment to the Pasco High community!

Congratulations to Asaka Erdmann, Pasco High School Japanese teacher, on receiving the 2026 CAPAA Local Hero Award!

The Washington State Commission on Asian Pacific American Affairs recognized Erdmann for promoting cultural understanding, connecting students with Japanese language and culture, and encouraging students from diverse backgrounds to share their voices.

From classroom learning to student exchanges, she creates opportunities that build connections and help students see the value of their own identities and contributions.

“My greatest hope is that this award will serve as encouragement for our students, especially those who may not often see their communities represented or celebrated,” Erdmann said.

Congratulations Asaka!

October is National Principals Month! Today, we are celebrating Seth Johnson, Principal, at Orion High School.

Seth loves seeing students discover what their futures could look like. He works to provide opportunities that connect what students are learning today with potential careers, helping them see purpose and possibility in their education.

At Orion, students receive recognition for academic success and growth, as well as their contributions to a positive school culture.

One word that describes Orion is team. It reflects the shared effort of staff and students to make their school a place where everyone can learn, contribute and grow.

His message to every student is: “Orion is an amazing place that is the product of an incredible staff and awesome students.”

Thank you, Seth, for your leadership and commitment to the Orion community!

October is National Principals Month! Today, we are celebrating Becky Hitchman, Principal, and Liz Ellis, Assistant Principal, at New Horizons High School.

Becky and Liz love watching students grow, find hope and develop a plan for their future. Seeing students recognize their progress and take steps toward their goals is a rewarding part of their work.

At New Horizons, positive home visits celebrate students who demonstrate growth each quarter. Each semester, School Wide Audacious Goals (SWAG) awards recognize students who have earned credits in every class in which they are enrolled.

One word that describes the New Horizons community is caring. It reflects the support and encouragement students receive as they build confidence and work toward their futures.

Their message to every student is: “You belong here, you are capable, and your future is still yours to create.”

Thank you, Becky and Liz, for your leadership and commitment to the New Horizons community!
