Jr/Sr High School Principal

Dear Purchase Line Families, Students, Staff, and Community Members,

It is with tremendous excitement, gratitude, and humility that I write to you as the Principal of Purchase Line Junior/Senior High School. Over the summer, our district experienced several administrative changes, and I am deeply honored to have been selected to serve in this new leadership role. I am grateful for the trust and confidence placed in me by the Board of School Directors and district leadership. I look forward to serving the students, families, faculty, staff, and community of the Purchase Line School District with pride and dedication.

Over the past 27 years, I have dedicated my career to education, serving students, families, and educators in a variety of teaching and leadership roles. Throughout my journey, I have learned that exceptional schools are built upon meaningful relationships, high expectations, open communication, and a shared commitment to helping every student reach their fullest potential. Those values will continue to guide my leadership as we build upon the strong traditions and successes that make Purchase Line such a special place.

Purchase Line has long been recognized as a school community that values pride, tradition, perseverance, and excellence. During my time here, I have witnessed firsthand the unwavering commitment of our faculty, staff, students, families, and community members. It is that commitment that makes our school more than just a place of learning—it makes it a family. I am honored to continue working alongside all of you as we move our school forward together.

As Principal, my vision is to cultivate a school culture where every student feels safe, valued, respected, challenged, and inspired. We will continue to provide rigorous academic opportunities while supporting the social and emotional well-being of every learner. Our goal is to prepare students not only for graduation but also for success in college, careers, military service, and life as responsible, compassionate citizens.

I firmly believe that education is a partnership. The saying, "It takes a village to raise a child," perfectly reflects the collaborative spirit that defines the Purchase Line community. When families, educators, students, and community members work together with a common purpose, there is no limit to what our students can achieve. I encourage our families and community members to remain actively involved in our schools, as your partnership is essential to our continued success.

As we begin this new school year, I am excited about the opportunities that lie ahead. Together, we will celebrate our successes, embrace new challenges, and continue creating an environment where every student has the opportunity to grow academically, socially, emotionally, and personally. I am committed to leading with integrity, visibility, transparency, and compassion while always keeping students at the center of every decision we make.

Thank you for your continued support of Purchase Line Junior/Senior High School. It is truly an honor to serve as your principal. I look forward to working alongside our outstanding students, dedicated faculty and staff, supportive families, and proud community as we continue writing the next chapter in the rich tradition of Purchase Line.

Together, we will continue to build a culture of excellence, strengthen our relationships, and inspire every Red Dragon to achieve their very best.

Sincerely,

Chad Cordek
