The excitement continues at Firgrove! Please join us in welcoming our new Assistant Principal to the Firgrove family. 💜

Take a moment to read her letter and help us give a big Hawk welcome! We are so excited for this new chapter!

My name is Connie (Constance) Standley, and I am thrilled to join the Firgrove Elementary community as your new Assistant Principal! I am honored to have the opportunity to work alongside our incredible staff, students, and families.
Last year, I served as a Dean of Students in the Puyallup School District, and prior to that, I spent 15 years in the Clover Park School District as a teacher and behavior interventionist. Throughout my career, I have been passionate about building positive relationships with students, supporting their growth, and helping them achieve success both in and out of the classroom. I believe in maintaining consistent, high expectations while creating a supportive environment where every student feels valued, capable, and empowered to reach their goals.
When I'm not at school, my family keeps me busy! My husband and I have been married for 26 years, and we have three wonderful children, along with three dogs, six chickens, and two bunnies. In our free time, we enjoy spending time together drag racing, riding motorcycles, and heading out on four-wheeling adventures. You will also often find me walking around campus with a Crystal Light lemon iced tea or Diet Barqs Root Beer in hand!
I am excited to collaborate with our staff, students, and families to ensure every child receives the support they need to thrive. I truly love working with students and celebrating their achievements, big and small. I can't wait to get to know each of you and work together to make this a fantastic year at Firgrove Elementary!
