Dr. Duwe

This is my 6th year as Principal of North Middle School.  This by far has been my most rewarding experience over the course of my 23 years as an educator.   I am grateful for our staff and how hard they work to support our students and provide them with engaging experiences.  I am extremely proud of our students and love watching them grow and mature as learners and community members over their time at North.  Lastly, I am grateful for our parent community and their ongoing support. I look forward to the 2023-2024 school year!

North Edge Characteristic that resonates with me:

Humility:  The longer I work in education, the more I realize I need to continue to learn and re-think and unlearn old ways of doing things. I strive to continue to be creative and find new ways to meet the needs of our students and to support our staff so they are effective in supporting all students.
