About our Principal

Dear Ramily,


I am very excited and honored to be Principal here at Robert Abbott Middle School. Just over 17 years ago, I joined the Waukegan Public Schools District as a first year teacher fresh out of college. In that time I have grown both personally and professionally which solidified my beliefs regarding education. I truly believe in the mission and vision of Abbott and find great joy in working with the staff and students in Waukegan.

In addition to serving as the Principal at Abbott, I am married with two fantastic children. I enjoy spending time outdoors with family and friends, listening to audio books to develop both personally and professionally, and staying physically active. Last year I completed two triathlons and plan to complete two more this year.  I also serve as a mentor for teachers in the Golden Apple Program and am honored to do advocacy work as part of the Illinois Educator Advisory Council.
