Welcome to Archibald A. Alexander Elementary School! I am so honored to lead this amazing learning community. As an Iowa City native, I understand the importance of supporting our young scholars and future community members academically, socially, and behaviorally. Alexander Falcons are all about respect, relationships, responsibility and pride. I am confident that every educator and staff member in our school believes in the success of each and every Falcon, every day! I cannot wait to continue building strong relationships within our Alexander community – stop in to see and feel our joyful learning environment in action, and please don’t hesitate to contact me with any questions or concerns.
