MEET OUR PRINCIPAL

I am Angel Gurski, it is a pleasure to introduce myself as the principal of Clendenin Elementary.  I have the privilege of living in Clendenin with my husband Tony, my 19-year-old daughter Kelsi, my 16-year-old son Nate, and my beloved cat, Elvis.  I also have a 26-year-old son Joshua, a daughter in law Kelsey, and a beautiful 7-month-old grandson, Caysen.  I graduated from West Virginia State University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Elementary Education.  I continued my journey at Salem International University and obtained a Master’s in Educational Leadership.  I have worked in the educational field for 18 years.  I spent 11 years as a teacher in pre-k, kindergarten, 2nd, 4th, and special education.  I left the classroom and spent the last 7 years in administration as an education manager, vice-principal, and principal.  I am excited to spend the next part of my career at Clendenin Elementary!
