Kings Glen AP News

Kings Glen is excited to announce that Andrew Aversa has been selected to join KGES as the new Assistant Principal beginning July 9, 2024. Mr. Aversa was selected after several interview panels were convened and also with input from school staff, the community and Region 4 Leadership.

Mr. Aversa brings a wealth of teaching and leadership experience, having served as an Assistant Principal in Stafford County Public Schools, and most recently as the Dean of Students at Sandburg Middle School in Fairfax County Public Schools. Prior to becoming an administrator, Mr. Aversa taught upper grades in both New York and Virginia.  

Mr. Aversa earned his Bachelors in Education from St. Joseph’s College and his Masters in Education as a Reading Specialist from Long Island University in New York. He earned his certification for Education Leadership from Virginia Commonwealth University. His experience in education has focused on building strong school cultures and relationships with the community.

Mr. Aversa seeks to build a genuine climate and culture of respect, fairness, and consistency.  He believes that kids and young adults everywhere have a desire to learn and be recognized, and encourages the adults in students’ lives to help students find success and overcome challenges.

We are excited to welcome Andrew Aversa to our Gator Nation!
