Clint Driftmier Statement:
I am truly honored to have been selected as the new Principal at Lakewood Elementary for the 2023-24 school year. I would like to thank Superintendent Magee and all those that were involved in the hiring process for giving me this opportunity and putting their trust in me to step into this role. I am extremely excited to return to Lakewood Elementary, as I know the quality of people already in place and the progressiveness of the building and district. I am excited to reconnect with the students, staff, parents, and the community of Norwalk. I can not wait to use my experiences in education to continue the excellence that has already been established at both Lakewood and Norwalk.
Being able to return to Norwalk will allow me the opportunity to serve the community that my family and I call home. My wife Daira and children Kyler (10), Diem (7), and Dace (3) look forward to continuing to be active members of the community/district and look forward to the relationships that we will build and foster for years to come.
Thank you again for your support and trust and GO WARRIORS!
