Olszewski named Sky View Middle School principal

Bend-La Pine Schools Superintendent Ron Wilkinson announced Thursday that Scott Olszewski has been selected to become the next principal at Sky View Middle School. Olszewski is currently a vice principal at Mountain View High School, a position he has served in for three years.

“I just love the middle school environment. I love the energy of middle school students and this stage of development, where they are in between being kids and being young adults,” said Olszewski.

Prior to working at Mountain View, Olszewski served as the dean of students at Pilot Butte Middle School for four years. He also has six years of classroom teaching experience at the middle school level.

Olszewski said he is also looking forward to working with Sky View staff: “They have a passion and energy for young people that just shines through.”

Olszewski’s favorite part of the job is working with students and parents and can’t wait to begin doing that at Sky View. “I am absolutely focused on kids, families and relationships. What I enjoy most is working with people in the service of kids.”

Olszewski will begin his position July 1; current Sky View principal Scott Edmondson is becoming the principal at R.E. Jewell Elementary School in Bend.

Several other administrative changes will take place July 1.

• Erich Brocker, the current student services coordinator at Highland Elementary School, will become the new vice principal at William E. Miller Elementary School.

• Frank Hanson, the student services coordinator at Marshall High School, will become the vice principal at Elk Meadow Elementary School.

• David Robinson, the current principal at Ochoco Elementary School in Crook County School District, will become the vice principal at Bear Creek Elementary School.

• Vanessa Tobolski, the current student services coordinator at Buckingham Elementary School, will become the school’s vice principal.
