Hello Alloway Creek Families! It is with great pleasure that I write this letter as the new Assistant Principal at Alloway Creek Elementary School. Although I have only been at ACES for a few days, I’ve enjoyed meeting many of the students and staff. While doing so, I have been honored to become a “Little Bolt” so quickly. As I become more immersed in the school community, I am looking forward to working with Dr. Fissel, the Alloway Creek staff, and the entire Littlestown community to lay the foundation of each student’s life of learning. I come to ACES with seventeen years of experience in education. I have served as an interim elementary principal for a year, as well as taught fifth and sixth grade, all at Northeastern York School District. As I transition into my new role here at ACES, I will work to become familiar with the strengths and needs of the staff and students. I will use my experiences as both an administrator and classroom teacher to work alongside staff to do whatever it takes to make students successful. On the personal side, my favorite thing to do outside of school is to spend time with my family. My wife, Carly, and I have a son, Asher, who is three years old, as well as an energetic labradoodle. I also enjoy being active outside, watching sports, and running. I am looking forward to becoming a member of the Thunderbolt community as I surround myself with everything Littlestown. I strongly believe that it takes the entire community to make all of our students the best they can be. With that, I would love to hear from you, so please reach out at any time with any questions, concerns, or ideas as we all work to make ACES the best place to learn. Best Regards, Dave Kochenour Assistant Principal Alloway Creek Elementary School
