Gordon Parks Elementary welcomes new Executive Director, Wayne Crull

Gordon Parks Elementary is thrilled to welcome Wayne Crull as our new Executive Director!

Mr. Crull was most recently the Chief Operations Officer of Great Circle, one of Missouri’s largest child welfare organizations (a recent merger between Edgewood Children’s Center and Boys and Girls, Inc.) located in St. Louis, Missouri. We are confident that with Mr. Crull’s strong background in operations and fundraising, along with his career-long dedication to children, he will be an extraordinary asset to our school. 

Mr. Crull will be working with school's administrative staff, faculty and board members to implement a transition plan for his first 90 days. This plan includes a thorough review of the school's financial, administrative and academic policies and procedures, and will also delve into disucssions of the school's strengths and the current challenges it faces. You can review the 90 day plan HERE. Read Mr. Crull's welcome letter to the Gordon Parks community HERE.

Please help us welcome Mr. Crull to the Gordon Parks community.  You may contact him by phone at (816) 753-6700, or feel free to introduce yourself the next time you visit Gordon Parks.
