Chino Valley Unified School District administrators recognized with top awards from Association of California School Administrators Region 12
Three Chino Valley Unified School District (CVUSD) administrators have received top recognition from the Association of California School Administrators (ACSA) Region 12, which represents educators in San Bernardino County.
ACSA Region 12 honorees include Country Springs Elementary School Principal Tom Mackessy as the Elementary Administrator of the Year; Adult School Principal Carl Hampton as the Adult Education Administrator of the Year; and Deputy Superintendent of Schools Dr. Norm Enfield as Central Office Administrator of the Year.
The honorees will receive their awards at the ACSA Region 12 awards ceremony on April 23, 2018 at the DoubleTree Hilton Hotel in Ontario. Dr. Enfield, Mr. Hampton and Mr. Mackessy are now qualified to be considered for ACSA Administrator of the Year awards at the California state level. Mr. Mackessy joined CVUSD in 1996 and became principal of Country Springs in 2016.
He has been instrumental in building strong relationships with the students and the community by bringing programs to schools that supports its culture. Among those programs were a morning coffee meeting with parents, special awards for student achievement, Grandparents’ Day and Lunch, and volunteer opportunities to get parents on campus.
Mr. Hampton joined CVUSD in 1997 as assistant principal at Magnolia Junior High School in Chino and has been principal of Chino Valley Adult School and Boys Republic High School since 2014. He coordinated the first-ever accreditation for the Adult School by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges. The accreditation’s purpose is to assure the public that the educational quality of programs and services offered by the institution are current, reflect high standards of quality, and are offered with integrity. A few of the new programs Mr. Hampton added to the Adult School curriculum includes an Emergency Medical Technician class offered through Chaffey College, a series of Microsoft certification courses, and medical billing and coding.
Dr. Enfield joined CVUSD in 2007 and became Deputy Superintendent in 2014. He has been committed to providing quality professional development to CVUSD administrative staff members, and established the Principals Representative Council and the Teaching and Learning Task Force that has provided opportunities for both administrators and teachers to work together on programs to foster student achievement. Dr. Enfield is a staunch proponent of the Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports program that takes a multi-tiered approach to social, emotional, and behavior support of students in an effort to improve academics and behavior on campus.
