People of PR: Dr. Koch

“We really want [students] to explore their ideas and form their opinions and find their voice.” – Dr. Koch, principal

This year the Wolf Prints news team decided to feature more people at Prairie Ridge, in a style inspired by the Humans of New York project. We begin this series today with Prairie Ridge Principal Dr. Koch.

Dr. Koch met with the news team to talk about his job as principal. He opened up and talked about how without “certain rules” that everyone has to follow, school would be “very chaotic.” Dr. Koch also expressed that every student could have a voice here at Prairie Ridge; they just need to do what they love. Finally, he credits being a dad of three kids with helping him have a better understanding in how to communicate with PR students.
