Jennifer Oaten, Principal (Class of 1985)
What better way to start 2023 than to sit down with the College’s Principal, Jennifer Oaten?
In this episode, we dive deep into Jen’s experience as an educator, look at her greatest strengths as a leader, and reflect upon her time as a Santa Maria College boarder. Jen also explores some of the benefits of single-sex education, touching on what separates Santa Maria from other all-girls schools. To finish off, Jen addresses her goals for the 2023 school year and her vision for the future.
This episode is worth a listen, whether you’re new to the Santa Maria community or just looking to learn about what being a Principal entails.
