​Dear Dr. E.P. Scarlett High School students, families and staff,
It is with great excitement that I introduce myself to you as the new Principal of Dr. E.P. Scarlett High School. I am deeply honoured to be chosen for this position. I have worked as an educator for 23 years. I have experience as an administrator in K – 12 schools. Primarily though, my experience has been in high schools. Currently I am the Principal of Western Canada High School and prior to that was the Principal of Elboya School. I taught in various high schools and junior highs in the Calgary Board of Education.
I want to share that my decision to apply for this position was both for professional growth and deeply personal. I was a graduate of Dr. E.P. Scarlett High School and have fond memories of fellow students, the staff and the community there. One of the reasons I want to return to Scarlett, is to have the chance to lead a school that gave me such a great start in my own life.
Dr. E.P. Scarlett High School is a school that celebrates academic excellence while being an inclusive, safe and caring school. I care deeply about students and want to ensure they all have a sense of belonging in the school and that they feel welcomed. I value diversity. I seek to fully support and build student's experiences in the classroom and outside the classroom. I have worked mainly in multiple track schools such as Scarlett as I seek to support French Immersion and English regular programming fully along with great enrichment through Advanced Placement. I am a strong supporter of the Fine Arts, Athletics along with important Club and extracurricular activities. I believe in high expectations from everyone in the school community and in supporting people to meet those expectations.
I look forward to bringing my values and my experience to the Dr. E.P. Scarlett community and look forward to connecting with each of you soon.
​Sincerely,
Carma Cornea
Principal​
