Greg Esala
Greg Esala was nominated for the Western MESPA Division Leadership Achievement Award by his peers. The award honors principals whose exemplary leadership and sustained efforts have made noteworthy contributions to the operation of effective school learning programs --  improving education, their communities, and their profession.

MESPA members selected 12 of their peers to receive the 2009 MESPA Division Leadership Achievement Award, one from each MESPA division. “Great principals lead great schools. These men and women are leaders in our profession and truly represent the very best in Minnesota public schools. As leaders, we focus on the potential and possibilities to ignite hope within our schools,” said P. Fred Storti, MESPA executive director. 

In his principalship, Esala follows this quotation: “'We care.' I continue to remind my staff and students that we are a school that cares about others. That is why we do what we do…because we care.” To read more about Greg, click here.
