Paula Giran
Principal, Hance Elementary School
“As a principal, I love that no two days are ever the same. My favorite part of the job is the collaborative spirit that fills our school. I am passionate about working with our Hance team to cultivate a risk-free environment where both teachers and students feel safe to innovate and try new things without fear of failure. Nothing warms my heart more than teachers stopping me to share student successes or excitement over a new lesson except, perhaps, the spontaneous hugs, handwritten notes, and drawings I receive from students.“
