I am proud of the work we've accomplished together, specifically our work in equity, choice learning, and significant capital investments. The future of our district is strong because of the continued dedication and leadership of the Camas School Board." Superintendent John Anzalone expressed his gratitude, saying, "Erika’s commitment to our students and community has been extraordinary. Her leadership and passion have helped shape the Camas School District into what it is today. We will miss her deeply but wish her all the best in her future endeavors."
