Ginger Slocum, current Columbine Elementary principal, has been announced as our new Chief Academic Officer.

Dear WPSD Families,

We are delighted to announce the appointment of Ginger Slocum as our new Chief Academic Officer (CAO), effective April 8, 2024.

Ginger has been an integral part of our school district, serving as the Principal at Columbine Elementary for the past five years. She has demonstrated dedication, passion, and proven leadership at Columbine. Her wealth of experience and commitment to academic excellence make her the ideal candidate to guide our district’s academic endeavors.

Ginger holds a Master of Science in Education, with a focus on Curriculum & Instruction, and a Post-Master’s Degree in Administrative Educational Leadership. Her extensive experience in leading both secondary and elementary schools will contribute to the ongoing success of our district.

Ginger will work closely with Kim Moore, our current CAO, during a transition period to ensure a seamless handover of responsibilities. This collaborative approach will allow for a smooth transition and continuity in our commitment to providing a high-quality education to all students.

During this transitional period, Ginger will allocate her time between the District office and her responsibilities as the Principal of Columbine Elementary. We will post the Columbine Principal position to find a replacement for Ginger soon.

Please join us in welcoming Ginger Slocum to her new position as Chief Academic Officer. Her leadership will play a pivotal role in advancing our academic initiatives and ensuring the continued success of Woodland Park School District.
