Administration Team

Dr. Keicha Chandler-Smith, Principal
I am extremely proud to serve as principal of LCEU! My heart smiles in getting to form meaningful and impactful relationships with each Gator! Our teachers and staff are dedicated, our volunteers and PTO are hard-working, and at the root of all of these are our students!
I look forward to working with you to solve problems, share perspectives, and celebrate our accomplishments.

Gregory Lewis, Assistant Principal
This is my second year being part of the Gator family. I am honored and excited to serve as an assistant principal this year at LCEU! I believe that meaningful relationships are at the heart of education and cannot wait to get to know the students and their families, faculty and staff, and the community.
