I am eager to collaborate and learn alongside the Sherwood staff, families, students and community. The best part of my job as a leader is the opportunity to support teachers and watch students achieve more than they dreamed they would. I am honored to join the Sherwood team and look forward to building relationships with each and every family.”“I’m expecting wonderful learning and experiences to continue at Sherwood Elementary under the leadership of Mrs. Magers,” said Dr. J. Anderson, executive director of elementary learning for SPS. “She brings a level of high expectations that match the expectations and practices by the amazing staff at Sherwood.”
