“I love being a principal in Blue Valley because it gives me the unique opportunity to support not just individual students or classrooms but an entire school community. Every day I get to help shape a positive, inclusive culture where both students and staff can thrive. I find deep purpose in empowering students and educators, celebrating growth and ensuring every child feels seen, supported and challenged to reach their potential. What’s most fulfilling is knowing that the decisions I make — whether big-picture or day-to-day — can have a lasting impact.” — Erica McDonald, @OTECougars principal 💚
On National School Principals Day, we want to celebrate our extraordinary principals like Erica! We're thankful for your tireless effort, leadership and support in everything you do to guide our students, staff and schools to excellence!

New year, new beginnings. From a KSU Wildcat, to a Baker Wildcat, and now a Cottonwood Point Wildcat. Beginning this year as Principal at Cottonwood Point Elementary brings me all the joy. Thank you to everyone who supported me up to this accomplishment.
Happy New Year! 🐾 🎆
Our DEI Council met last night for our first official meeting! We are focused on diversity, equity, and inclusion for all students and families here at OTE! It was so fantastic to see so many wonderful people come together for a great cause! #BetterTogether#OTEcougars
