New Associate Principal at LHS.

[Edward Favre]

The Lakewood Board of Education at a special meeting held Friday, April 7, 2017 approved the appointment of Emerson Elementary School Principal Brian Siftar as Associate Principal for Lakewood High School effective with the 2017-2018 school year. The move to Lakewood High School will be a familiar one for Siftar, who was hired by the District in 2008 as a House Principal for Lakewood High School.
After serving as House Principal for four years, Siftar was appointed as the Director of Special Programs and State and Federal Programs for two years before becoming the Principal of Emerson, a position which he has held for the past three years. 
Siftar, who will be on a year-round contract, will be responsible for House 2, oversee AP and state testing during the school year and focus on long-term planning and continuous school improvement plans during the summer months.
Siftar’s administrative experience prior to joining the District includes serving as a special education supervisor and middle school assistant principal with the Garfield Heights School District.  He was also an intervention specialist for the Garfield Heights system. He earned his special education teaching license from the Cleveland State University and his Master’s Degree in Administration from Akron University.
Brian and his wife, Monica, reside in Lakewood. Two of their children attend Lakewood City Schools and their third child will begin kindergarten in the fall.
