Principal's Corner
Dear Frank G. Lindsey Elementary School Families & Friends,
Welcome to Frank G. Lindsey Elementary School (FGL)! My name is Mr. James L. Mackin Jr. and I am the proud “new” Principal of Frank G. Lindsey Elementary School. While I am new to FGL, I am not new to the district. As I enter my 27th year in education, I feel re-energized and excited to continue my work supporting students, parents and staff at the elementary level.
Prior to arriving at FGL, I spent the past 20+ years, as an Assistant Principal and then Principal of our very own Hendrick Hudson High School. I am extremely proud of the work that was done to improve opportunities for our 9-12 grade students. As I begin this next phase of my career I believe I bring a unique perspective to Frank G. Lindsey Elementary School.
I can tell you without question that the Frank G. Lindsey Elementary School staff is eager to continue the work they began last year to transform the learning environment and student experience for all. Mrs. Torrisi strongly believes that “collaboration and a strong home-school connection” are the cornerstones to FGL's growth and success. My intention will be to capitalize on the momentum produced by her collaboration with students, staff and parents and create opportunities for our 2nd and 3rd graders to be the best versions of themselves possible.
I am truly excited to be a part of the Frank G. Lindsey Elementary School Community and I look forward to meeting all of our students and families as the year progresses. Please do not hesitate to introduce yourself at any events you may see me at. It will help me remember names and faces as well as give us a chance to chat. Thank you!
Always a Sailor,
Mr. James L. Mackin Jr.
James Mackin
