About Me

Throughout my career, I’ve served as a teacher, building principal, and Curriculum Director, and now Superintendent. I’ve worked in lots of different educational environments, always with the same goal: to create meaningful, student-centered environments where teachers thrive and students succeed.

This blog is a space where I share real-world strategies, policy insights, leadership reflections, and practical tools for fellow educators. Whether you’re a new teacher, a veteran principal, or an aspiring administrator, my hope is that you’ll find ideas here to inspire your work and strengthen your impact.

Hi, I’m Dr. Amy Nelson — a K-12 school district superintendent with over 20 years of experience as an educator, leader, and lifelong learner.

Thank you for joining me on this journey in educational leadership — let’s grow together.
