Welcome

  • Erica TunsonGreetings Monterey families!

    I am Erika Tunson, your principal, and I am honored to serve you. I have been the assistant principal here at Monterey for the last six years and I love working at this school! Monterey has truly transformed from good to great over the last few years.

    I am no stranger to Harrison School District 2 as I am beginning my twenty-sixth year in the district! After teaching for seventeen years and then working at the district level for a few years I came to Monterey. It is my privilege to now supervise one of my former second-grade students who teaches here which is such an inspiration and acknowledgment of how teachers, school staff, and families can truly make a difference in the life of our students.

    I am dedicated to our mission of building a foundation for students to grow and achieve and I have an amazing staff to help us realize that mission. Our students' education and their safety are my number one priority. Our theme for this school year is #EMPOWER! We are empowered to learn, to teach, and be the best we can be! I am so grateful to be your principal and I look forward to a great year working together!
