Fleming takes over as Bonsall High School principal Joe Naiman Village News Correspondent When what is now the Bonsall Unified School District was planning for the opening of Bonsall High School, the district chose to implement the New Technology Network model in which students interact with local industry and serve internships and which emphasizes interdisciplinary study, and the New Technology Network program was selected for both Bonsall High School and Sullivan Middle School. The school district also designated Tim Heck both as the new principal of Sullivan Middle School and as the first principal of Bonsall High School. Heck helped implement the development of the high school, which opened in August 2014 with ninth-graders only. In March 2015, the school district determined that Bonsall High School was ready for its own principal, and the district landed New Technology Network director of new school development Lee Fleming for that role. Fleming took over as the
Bonsall High School principal on March 16. “It was just an incredible opportunity for this area. It was amazing that we were able to get someone with her ability to take on this position,” said BUSD superintendent Justin Cunningham. In August 2013, the Bonsall Union School District board approved the transition of Janet Whiddon from Sullivan’s principal to the district’s director of curriculum (Whiddon is still in charge of curriculum and is also now in charge of human resources for the school district) and approved the hiring of Heck as the Sullivan and Bonsall High School principal. For the first year, Heck was the principal of actual students at Sullivan while his Bonsall High School duties involved planning. “We just didn’t expect him to take on ninth grade, so we wanted to get some leadership at the high school,” Cunningham said. “He’ll stay at Sullivan.” The New Technology Network program includes training for its affiliates, including Bonsall High School. “It is a New Tech

high school, so I went up to the New Tech leadership summit,” Cunningham said. Fleming was also at the leadership summit. “She was right at this time looking at moving back to California,” Cunningham said. Fleming began her teaching career in 2000 at Delhi High School in Merced County. In 2003, she became a teacher at Sacramento’s New Technology High School. The New Technology Network hired her as a senior school development coach in 2006. Fleming had been a director of new school development for the New Technology Network since October 2011. “She was working as the director of new school development, which is exactly what we are,” Cunningham said. The New Technology Network has 160 affiliates in 26 states and also has a presence in Australia. Many of the staff members work from home rather than from the Napa office, and Fleming’s presence in Utah allowed her to obtain a master of education degree with an emphasis on educational leadership and administration from Brigham Young University. Fleming also received her bachelor’s degree from BYU, where she was a history major. She obtained her California teaching credential through Chapman University. “She is going to, I think, really have the high school at a level that
