WElcome!
Dear Park Elementary Families,
We are excited to welcome you and your family to our Park Elementary school family!
It is my great privilege to introduce myself to you as Park Elementary’s principal. I am honored to have the opportunity to be part of the dynamic community of learners at Park. Park has a dedicated and talented staff and am thrilled to work alongside them to provide the highest level of care and education for all students at Park.
I joined the Park team in 2018 with almost twenty years of experience in education. I have served Hudsonville Public Schools in various capacities, first, as a teacher at Bauer Elementary, where I loved learning and growing with my students. I was excited to move into a position as a gifted and talented consultant to support students around the district who were seeking creative educational challenges. I then moved into a role in central office as a professional development and instructional coach. This role allowed me to grow my expertise in curriculum and instruction, supporting teachers to implement best practices in the classroom. I love having the opportunity to use the knowledge and skills to support the Park staff, students and families.
My husband Craig and I have been blessed with two fantastic daughters, Gertie (10) and Micah (13). We also share our home with our crazy dog, Max, who makes life an adventure every day. We live in Grand Rapids where our girls are part of the Grand Rapids Christian Spanish immersion program. We spend as much time outdoors as we can playing, hiking and enjoying the Michigan woods and beaches. Friday night family pizza and movie night is a standing date at our house.
On behalf of the whole Park community, we welcome you to Park and look forward to working alongside your family!
Warm Regards,
Dawn Heerema
