Principal

Mrs. Shannon Jordan

I would like to introduce myself as some of you may not have crossed my path as the former Pre-K-6 Heuvelton Principal. For the past 5 years I have been the 7-12 Principal and enjoyed that experience. My name is Shannon Jordan and I am thrilled to return to my original position as the Elementary Principal. For many years, I have been immersed in education at all levels from Pre-K to college. My previous roles include K-12 School Counselor, Adjunct Professor for SLU, BOCES Special Education Principal and for the past 8 years I have been an Elementary Principal both in Massena and most recently Heuvelton Elementary as well as the 7-12 Principal here for 5 years. I have had the best time and learned the most as a Bulldog!

If I could describe my motto, I would say I care for all people and advocate for kids. As a mother of four children, I make all of my decisions using the guiding “my kid test” as I ask myself what I would want for my own children. I promise to give them all my respect and will encourage a community of mutual respect for all. I have the best job on earth in my opinion. I get to come to work and be surrounded by students of all ages eager to learn uniquely in their own style. I intend to spend a lot of time with your children to learn their personalities and listen to their future hopes and wishes.

I look forward to our partnership. I truly stand by the old African Proverb, “It takes a village to raise a child.” I am excited to learn about your children through your eyes. I look forward to sharing with you the great things they accomplish during their days at HCS. I am committed this year to sharing with you more frequently. I hope you can take a minute to stop by and introduce yourself and your kids to me or even better they can bring you by to meet me. I am thrilled to be back in Elementary. I look forward to this rekindled experience as I watch your children learn and grow.
