Meet Our Vice Principal
Mr. Jason Koenigsberg
My name is Jason Koenigsberg and it is my honor and privilege to introduce myself as the new Vice Principal of Roy Cloud School. I have been in education for sixteen years and I am proud to become part of Redwood City School District, a stellar and forward-thinking institution. My family and I have moved from New Jersey to the San Francisco Bay area and we are excited about becoming members of this community for many years to come. I received my Bachelor’s degree from the University of Rhode Island and my Masters in Education from Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey. During my career I have served as a teacher at the elementary, middle school, and high school levels and was a Director of Special Education and Student Services as well. I have experience working closely with children who have special needs and I am acutely aware of making it my goal to meet every individual student's academic, social, and emotional needs. My strengths are in building relationships with the students, parents, staff, and community members, always putting students first. I pride myself in maintaining positive relationships and building a foundation of communication and trust so that everyone knows I have their children’s best interests at the heart of all of our decisions.
As a new team member, I will always have my door open for anyone that wants to discuss any issues that they have because I am a lifelong learner and will certainly have a lot to learn from all of you as I acclimate to my new home. I hold a strong record for exceeding goals through transparent communication and a commitment for an engaging student-centered learning environment. My time as a wrestling coach, Model UN advisor, and teacher in extended school day programs provides the experience to demonstrate to our students there is more to education than what they do in the classroom and the grade they receive on a test. My goal is to have our students build their character with a strong emphasis on becoming civic minded citizens who strive to make a positive difference in their local, national, and global communities.
When I am not working with your children I am often hiking, traveling with my family, trying new restaurants, exploring all that the San Francisco Bay area has to offer, and playing with our dog. I am a huge baseball fan and I love going to see my favorite team compete against the Giants at Oracle Park. I am very excited to join the Roy Cloud School community and proud to be a Thunderbolt.
