Dawna Underwood, NCS Elementary Principal and Early Education Director: Reflections from a Career in Christian Education (Part One)
Show Notes

Over the course of three decades, Dawna Underwood has seen her job grow and change as she served within Northwest Christian School, a school that was also experienced growth and change.  As a result, she has been the tip-of-the-spear within many of the initiatives that kept Northwest Christian on the leading edge of progress.

Underwood came to NCS from Christian Unified in San Diego and started as a classroom teacher.  In time, she became the school's first Director of Curriculum and Instruction, eventually becoming the Elementary Principal and Early Education Director.

But, during that time, aside from her decades-long commitment to NCS, she also served as a member of the ACSI Rocky Mountain Regional Accreditation Commission, helping to steer quality within Christian schools throughout the western United States.  In fact, her commitment to quality Christian ed has taken her around the globe, most recently to the City of Joy Christian School in Rwanda, Africa.

As Underwood prepares for retirement from day-to-day operations within Christian schools, today we kick-off a multi-day conversation with her as she looks back and reflects on all that she has seen the Lord accomplish through her hands.
