Dr. Annette Sauceda
Hello Heartland Jaguars! My name is Annette Sauceda and I am your proud principal. The 2022-23 school year marks my 20th year in education and my 12th year in administration.
I was born and raised in Morgantown, West Virginia and earned my Bachelors and Masters degrees at West Virginia University. I then moved to Orlando, Florida and taught for three years before moving to Overland Park in 2006. I began my career in Blue Valley as a math teacher, School Improvement Specialist, Administrative Intern, Assistant Principal and now Principal. In 2007, I attended Baker University to receive my Administration license and completed my Doctorate in Educational Leadership in May 2017.
My husband, Tony, and I have 13-year-old twin boys, Miles & Keenan who are 8th graders at Lakewood Middle School. We also have two miniature dachshunds, Minnie and Oliver. Being an educator helps me be a better mom, and being a mom helps me be a better educator. We are ALL in this together!

Sincerely,
Annette
