Robertson ready to<br />
take reins at <strong>HP</strong>HS<br />
Courtney Jacquin, Editor<br />
Dr. Elizabeth Perez<br />
Robertson has a story like<br />
many students in Township<br />
District 113.<br />
In the 1960s, Robertson’s<br />
parents and two older<br />
sisters left Cuba, seeking<br />
asylum in the United<br />
States. While Robertson<br />
was born in the U.S., she<br />
saw the struggles her family<br />
went through, and she<br />
carries that with her today.<br />
“To see my sisters go<br />
through what we often see<br />
in our district, students<br />
that are coming here and<br />
wanting the same things<br />
that my parents wanted —<br />
a great education for their<br />
kids — and yet having<br />
those struggles of assimilating<br />
and trying to learn<br />
the language and trying to<br />
succeed,” Robertson said.<br />
“So fast forward to now,<br />
to be in this position where<br />
I can help those families,<br />
and I totally understand<br />
what it means.”<br />
Robertson officially began<br />
her new role as Highland<br />
Park High School<br />
principal July 1, taking<br />
over for Dr. Tom Koulentes,<br />
who will start at Libertyville<br />
High School as<br />
principal in the fall.<br />
Though some may not<br />
be familiar with Robertson,<br />
she’s a veteran of the<br />
district.<br />
From 2008-11, she<br />
served as an assistant principal<br />
at <strong>HP</strong>HS, overseeing<br />
the Science, World Language,<br />
Library, Technology<br />
and Counseling departments.<br />
In 2011, when the district<br />
was forced to reduce<br />
the number of assistant<br />
principals in each high<br />
school, Robertson was<br />
appointed World Language<br />
Department Chair<br />
at Deerfield High School.<br />
As the Department Chair,<br />
she worked alongside students,<br />
parents, teachers<br />
and staff.<br />
“I have been in this<br />
building before, so it’s<br />
like coming home for me,”<br />
Robertson said.<br />
On top of that, she has a<br />
total of 30 years of experience<br />
in teaching and administration,<br />
starting her<br />
career at Niles West High<br />
School and Adlai E. Stevenson<br />
High School before<br />
coming to D113.<br />
Robertson’s major goal<br />
for her first year in the<br />
position is relationship<br />
building. Though she’s<br />
returning to familiar halls,<br />
her new role will present<br />
unique challenges.<br />
“I want to be out in the<br />
building,” she said. “I<br />
don’t want to be in my office.<br />
I’ve never been that<br />
kind of administrator anyway.<br />
... So I would say my<br />
two main goals are to be<br />
