WARSAW — Warsaw Community Schools’ Assistant Superintendent of Elementary Education Dr. David Robertson recently received the prestigious Indiana Association of School Principals (IASP) President’s Award.

Aimee Lunsford, Lincoln Elementary School principal, serves as the president of IASP.

“Each year the president of IASP is given the opportunity to recognize an individual who has impacted their leadership in a positive way,” said Lunsford. “I first became acquainted with Dave when he was my mentor through Indiana Principal Leadership Institute, a statewide principal’s professional growth institute. Later, my path brought me to Warsaw where I have been stretched and challenged to reach my full potential under Dave’s guidance and supervision.”

The IASP President’s Award was presented in Indianapolis at the Fall Professionals Conference from Nov. 21 to 23. Under the direction of Cassandra Petrie, the Warsaw Community High School Select Chorale and Women’s advanced choir helped kick off the conference. Students went on to sing at the statehouse and received high accolades from WCS Superintendent Dr. David Hoffert.

“Dave embodies true servant leadership, but he marries it with excellence in a way that is so hard to find in humanity alone, and it certainly sets him apart as a leader,” said Lunsford. “While I was honored to give this award to Dave and he has tremendously impacted me, I know that I simply have a platform this year to honor a leader that feeds into the hearts and minds of leaders across our district and across the state. Dave impacts so many as he walks out his calling duty to walk alongside leaders.”
