Mr. Carl Krushinski

Principal

I am excited to be the new principal of the Oxycocus Elementary School.  It is evident to me that the families, entire school staff, board of education, and administration are working together to benefit the lives of the children in this community.

I have worked with children from the ages of five to eighteen for over twenty years in various schools and positions.  The past five years I have worked as Principal of the Ocean Acres School, and prior to that I have worked with the Plumsted School District.  My positions there included being a special education teacher teaching math, coordinating the special services department, and being the assistant to the principal for the elementary school.

I look forward to working with you so that your child may reach his or her highest potential.
