In March, University High School the U-High staff, faculty, and administration Campus Box 7100 began posting announcements to students on Normal, IL 61790-7100 Facebook. 2 Superintendent’s greeting Fall at University High School is always a special time. Incoming freshmen are get- ting their first taste of a completely different learning environment where freedom and responsibility are available in abundance. New faculty are becoming familiar with time- honored traditions and the University High School culture. Our new faculty begin to learn how to blend best practice, teacher education, and innovation together to create dynamic teaching and learning. This fall is particularly special as we wel- come our new principal, Andrea Markert. Andrea Markert Steve Evans Mrs. Markert is very familiar with U-High, as she served as teacher and assistant principal prior to accepting the principal position. She brings a wealth of relationships and knowledge of University High School along with her energy, ideas, and enthusiasm! We are very fortunate to have Steve Evans move permanently into the assistant principal’s role. Like Mrs. Markert, Mr. Evans brings several years of experience at University High School as a science teacher and coach and last year served as the interim assistant principal. Mr. Evans has developed great rapport with our students and has done an outstanding job helping make improvements in the facility. Due to their past experiences and familiarity with the school, Mrs. Markert and Mr. Evans value the vital role that U-High alumni play in the life of our school. I know you will find them valuable resources as you reconnect with U-High—as visitors, volunteers, donors, and most importantly, friends. Please take the time to say hello to our two new administrators as you come to campus for a visit. Thank you again for your ongoing support and involvement. I look forward to seeing you at our Homecoming festivities on September 20!
