Meet the Sureño Administration

Mr. Jim Strogen

I have been in the Kyrene School District for 21 years.  I taught 2^nd, 5^th, 6^th, 7^th and 8^th grades. I was an assistant principal at Paloma and Sureño and then the assistant director of Curriculum and Assessment for 4 years at the Kyrene District.  I spent the last 6 years serving as the principal of Kyrene de los Lagos.  I am thrilled to be returning to Sureno as principal.  I look forward to working with you throughout the year.

Mrs. Lisa Connor

I have had the great opportunity to be apart of the Kyrene School District and the community for 13 years.  I spent all my teaching years here at Sureño.  I taught a wide variety of things during that time- music, 2^nd, 3^rd, and 4^th grade. Last year I was the assistant principal at Kyrene de los Lagos and was excited when I was given the chance to come back to Sureño.  I am looking forward to seeing many familiar faces and greeting new families to our community.
