We stand with our principal Nora Houseman and want her to remain principal of San Francisco Community School. We believe she shows sound professional judgment and deep dedication to students, families and staff. She is a tremendous leader and we are committed to her return to SFC as our principal.

In her 8 years with SFC, 4 years in the classroom and 4 years as our principal, she has shown her loyalty to our community. Her tireless work toward excellence and equity, often in the face of daunting challenges, has been both effective and inspiring. Under her leadership, the school has also made important strides in fostering a collaborative and talented community of teachers. We believe that there is no one better qualified to lead our school than Nora.

We the undersigned urge SFUSD to return Nora Houseman as principal of SF Community School as soon as possible so that she can lead our school into the 2016-17 school year. Thank you for your consideration.
