Hello!  My name is Mr. Chad Curry, the principal at Whitfield Elementary.  Before becoming a principal, I taught (mostly as a fifth grade teacher) for eight years at Tilden Elementary in the Hamburg School District.  Later, I served the Governor Mifflin School District community as an Assistant Principal for almost three years and a principal at Cumru Elementary the past five years.  I currently reside in the Governor Mifflin School District with my wife Allison Curry (a third grade teacher at Brecknock Elementary).  We have three awesome children.  It is an honor to be afforded the opportunity to work in the Wilson School District.

As the principal, I strive to create an environment where our students, staff, and families continue to strengthen our relationships in order to best support student learning.  Each child at Whitfield Elementary is on their own learning journey and our goal is to support their learning growth along the way!  Together, we can provide experiences for our students so they are empowered to embrace learning, promote social, emotional, and physical well-being, as well as, develop a growth mindset when learning can be a challenge.

In addition to academics, we will focus on creating a sense of belonging for our students through morning meetings within our classrooms, while also focusing in on Social/Emotional Learning for our students.
