ROOSEVELT'S LOSS IS WELLSTONE'S GAIN
For the past three years, we have been very fortunate to have Mr. Christian Ledesma serve as an Assistant Principal at Roosevelt High School. Due to other leadership changes in the district, Christian has been reassigned to be an interim Principal at Wellstone International High School. As an experienced leader, Mr. Ledesma will play a critical role at a school serving our district’s newcomer students. His care and expertise will be important in providing a smooth transition as Wellstone searches for its permanent Principal.
During his time at Roosevelt, Assistant Principal Ledesma helped to develop our Spanish Dual Immersion Program, helped to facilitate our Instructional Leadership Team and was an integral part of our Administrative Team.
While this will be a loss for our school community, I am certain we will have another strong AP in place by the start of the school year.
Please join us in congratulating Christian Ledesma and wishing him well as he takes on this new challenge.
