Jamie Standaert ~ Principal

I have served in public education for the past fifteen years. I am a graduate of Stevensville High School, then earned my B.A. in Elementary Education from Carroll College. I later earned a Master’s Degree in Educational Leadership from the University of Montana.  I have served as an elementary teacher, special education teacher, and school administrator. I enjoy seeing students grow and change throughout the course of their educational experience.  I am married with three children and am looking forward to living in the Bitterroot Valley, where I grew up, and sharing all of the beauty with my own family. I am honored to serve as the new K-12 Principal for Victor Public Schools.  I am looking forward to partnering and supporting teachers, to make student success a priority during the 2021-2022 school year.

Scott Stiegler ~ Superintendent

Hello, I am excited to serve as your Superintendent.

I want to wish Mrs. Woodard the best in her next adventures.  She was an integral part of this school community for 5 years and has left an indelible mark.  Mrs. Woodard was very helpful to me early on and over the summer and I want to thank her for everything.  Best of luck to you, Diane.

I grew up in Frenchtown, Montana.  Aside from wrestling season, I enjoy as much time outside as possible. I love exploring western Montana's splendor by attending Griz football games, golfing, water-skiing, hunting, snowmobiling, and atv'ing with my family and friends.  I've decided that mountain biking and cycling are great ways to exercise, but I don’t put in as much time as I should. 

My wife, Melissa, and I have lived in Florence for 24 years.  We recently celebrated our 27th wedding anniversary with our three children, Anna (age 23), Jacob (21), and Sophia (16).  I always enjoy teasing my family and keeping them on their toes.

I love being an educator!  I began working in the public school setting in 1998.  I strive to connect with staff and children, to provide children with the best learning experiences possible, and to help our staff to be as well-equipped as possible.  I taught middle school for eighteen years and have been a school administrator for six (as a Superintendent/Principal and Activities Director).  I've coached and officiated wrestling since I was a freshman in high school and am currently a high school wrestling referee with the Montana Officials Association.  I’ve also dabbled in coaching football and track & field.

I am so excited to be at Victor Public School, and If you have the chance, please stop in because I love to meet community members and school stakeholders..  It’s important to me that we get to know each other. 

It's going to be a great school year and I look forward to this journey with you.  Here we go!

Always learning,

Scott Stiegler
