Sullivan Runner-Up for Assistant Principal of Year

The New Hampshire Assistant Principal of the Year Committee announced that Londonderry High School Assistant Principal Katie Sullivan is runner-up for the award.

Sullivan received an award for her accomplishment during a luncheon at Church Landing in Meredith honoring all the nominees.

“It was a very nice reception and they had wonderful remarks to share about all the educators nominated,” LHS Principal Jason Parent said. “We’re very proud of her.”

“I’m happy just to have been nominated by my peers,” Sullivan said when she learned in December she was a finalist for the award.

Sullivan earned her degree in Health and Physical Education from Keene State College in 1995 and started as a Health teacher at Gilbert H. Hood Middle School in Derry that same year. She went on to earn her Master’s in Counseling, then took a job as a counselor at Matthew Thornton Elementary School.

After earning her second Master’s in Administration, Sullivan began her nine-year career at the high school.

Sullivan has shown leadership and a commitment to the school and community through her work with the Pay it Forward Group and Response to Intervention Team. She said her relationship with kids is “number one” and describes her work at the high school as “a lifestyle,” calling the students and her co-workers family.

Parent said Sullivan’s “connection with the students, staff and community is like none other,” and that she has a great sense of the pulse of the building and has had a tremendous influence on the culture and what Lancer Nation is all about.
