We are excited to announce some changes that we believe will have a positive impact on the Draper 2 campus, as well as strengthen the schools as a whole.

Beginning Monday, January 5th, Mrs. Durling will be the Administrator over Lower Elementary (K-3) at Draper 2. Deb Lloyd will return to Draper 2 as the Administrator over the Upper Elementary (4-6). Many of you know that Mrs. Lloyd was a well-loved 6th grade teacher at our Draper 1 campus for several years before moving to administrator positions at other schools. We are very excited to welcome her to Draper 2. She will bring a great deal of experience with upper elementary students and teachers to the Draper 2 campus.

Mrs. Oz has accepted a new district support position, assisting Executive Management with Special Education, Communication, and School Development. We appreciate all the hard work she has dedicated to the students and families at Draper 2!

We hope you will extend your thanks to Mrs. Oz, and your welcome to Mrs. Lloyd.
