National Principal's Month
October is National Principal's Month and we are excited to celebrate Robert M. Shoemaker High School's principal, Latisha Williams. Starting her third year, she makes sure that Shoemaker High School educates a diverse population by motivating and empowering them to be continual learners and successful, productive citizens.
