Dan Cummings
Principal, CCV Secondary School
“More than twenty years ago, encouraged by an inspirational college professor, I started into the field of education immediately after graduating from Colorado State University (’98). With a BA in English, I began my teaching career in an experiential, alternative school setting in Elizabeth, Colorado. Since then, I have taught in parochial, public, international, and independent schools.
Along the way I picked up an MA in English Literature from the Bread Loaf School of English at Middlebury College (’06) and, at different points in my career, I served as Department Chair, Dean of Academics, and Dean of School. I also served as a Director of Upper School (the independent school version of a Principal) for six years in two different cities. I have always maintained a teaching load in combination with my administrative positions as I believe that the true pulse of a school exists in the classroom.
I am proud to be at CCV. I am excited by our growing CTE program, our success and preparing students for life after graduation, and our embrace of families and community!”
