Meaghan Reist

Vice Principal
In 2012 Shelley and Meaghan shared a bucket of bevies poolside at the Monte Carlo in Las Vegas, Nevada. It was shortly after they decided that completing their Masters of Education would be a good idea. Fast-forward to 2015, they decided improving culture in education through leadership would be their mission. They boldly approached the Associate Superintendent of their division, shared their vision, and suggested they would be a great pair to evaluate and improve cultural practice in schools. They awaited the phone call confirming their brilliance....it never came.  Five years later they went to the mountains, they drank wine, they reset, and they were inspired by other passionate educators, leaders and educator allies who sparked the dream again. They have always been about connection, about changing education from what it always has been to what it could be, and now they desire to share.
