I would also like to take this moment to share some information about myself with you. I’m a graduate of Greece Athena High School, where I participated in many clubs and activities, specifically playing on the school ice hockey and baseball teams. After graduating, I attended Monroe Community College and SUNY Geneseo, where I earned my Bachelor’s Degree in Adolescent Education. I then completed a Master’s Degree program in Special Education at Roberts Wesleyan College, and a Doctorate Degree program in Education Leadership at the University of Rochester.

As an administrator, I previously served as an assistant principal in the Spencerport Central School District and as the Jr./Sr. High School Principal in the Le Roy Central School District. As a staff member in Sodus, I previously served in many roles, including teacher, bus driver, chaperone, coach, and class advisor. My service in these roles reflects my passion for working in a school community, and I look forward to continuing to learn about the different ways I can connect with and serve the Sodus school and community.

 I strongly believe that academic development and character education are the two main pillars of education for developing the whole student. My mission as your principal is to learn about you and how I can support you and your families as we look to build on areas of success and continue to develop areas with opportunities for growth.

I invite you to introduce yourself and reach out if you need support or would like to talk about our school and community. Thank you for your support, and go Spartans!

Sincerely,

Dr. David Russell

Principal

Sodus Jr.-Sr. High School
