Dear Parents,

My name is Thomas Trippany and I am honored to be your new Principal effective July 1, 2011. After spending the past eleven years as an Assistant Principal at the elementary and middle school levels, I am looking forward to my new role.

Prior to the 2011 spring break, I was fortunate to spend five weeks at Shiloh Elementary as part of the Quality Plus Leader Academy. During this time, I began building relationships with the students, staff, parents and community. The experience was phenomenal and I consider myself very lucky to be joining the Shiloh family.

I am married with two children. My wife, Heather, teaches 6th grade math at Trickum Middle School. Our children will be in third and fifth grade for the 2011-2012 school year. They are both very active in sports, so you are likely to see me at the area soccer and softball fields.

Please know that I am here to support you and your family in any way possible. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to give me a call. Thank you for your part in making Shiloh Elementary School Gwinnett County's best kept secret!

Sincerely,

Thomas Trippany
Principal
