FROM THE DESK OF MS. BODDEN

 WELCOME TO THE 2019--2020 SCHOOL YEAR!!

I am excited to begin my sixteenth (16th) year as the Assistant Principal of THE Glassboro High School.  This is also my 34th year in the field of education, having served 18 years in the Bridgeton Public School district.  WHERE DID THE TIME GO???  Growing up, I always knew I wanted to be in the field of education.  I count myself very blessed to have worked in only two districts my entire career, not many people can say that.  

It was fortunate that I have found a home here in a community, school and with students who hold a very special place in my heart.  This year is the first year i find myself as the Assistant Principal of the sons and daughters of my former students I had during my first years here (a sign that I have been here a long time!!).  Honestly, I have loved every year...the ups and downs, highs and lows, and wouldn't trade it for all the money in the world.  

At GHS, we believe in " achieving personal excellence, one child at a time".  My mission is to support all students academically, socially and emotionally.  I believe in the potential of each student, and realize we are not just preparing them for the next grade, but for their future.  This preparation will include experiences that are challenging, relevant, and meet the needs of the individual student.  I am looking forward to supporting the students, staff and community of Glassboro.  I have always believed in open communication between the school and homes of my students.  I believe it truly "takes a village to raise a child", and it has been my pleasure to have been a part of this awesome village.  When it's all said and done, I have LOVED my time in Glassboro, and made many memories and friends.   Glassboro High is not just a school to me...this is my extended family.

Please feel free to contact me with any concerns or celebrations you would like to share with me.  It is exciting to think about all that we can and will achieve working together.  Let's make the 2019--2020 school year a GREAT ONE!!!
