Dear Sundahl Community,

We are pleased to announce that Jeanine Holton has been appointed as the Interim Principal of Carl H. Sundahl Elementary School. Jeanine has served as Assistant Principal at Vista del Lago High School since 2018 and brings over 20 years of experience as an educator in the Folsom Cordova Unified School District, the same district where she grew up and where her own children have been educated.

Jeanine’s leadership is centered on building strong, trusting relationships with staff, students, and families. She is deeply committed to collaboration, instructional excellence, and fostering school cultures where both students and staff thrive. At Vista del Lago, she helped lead the school to earn Model PLC recognition and Marzano’s High Reliability Schools Level 1 certification, reflecting her focus on systems thinking and data-informed decision-making.

A National Board Certified Teacher, Jeanine is also a mentor with the SCOE Leadership Institute, where she supports new PK-12 Administrators in developing their instructional leadership. She is passionate about growing and empowering others, coaching teachers, and ensuring that every student has access to high-quality instruction and support.

Jeanine is eager to bring her experience and passion for learning to Sundahl. She looks forward to working alongside the Carl H. Sundahl staff, students, and families to continue the school’s tradition of excellence while fostering connection, collaboration, and growth.

Join us in welcoming Ms. Holton to the Sundahl family!
