Administration


Mr. Steigerwald has worked in education since his graduation from Wayne State University in 1989.  He taught English in Detroit at Redford High School and Cass Tech and in the New Hanover County Schools in North Carolina.  While teaching he taught everything from ninth grade to senior Advanced Placement English and established the Advanced Placement Language class at Cass.  He has also served as a reader for the Advanced Placement Literature Exam and earned a grant from the Nation Endowment for the Humanities to study Shakespeare through performance in Medford, Oregon.
After enjoying fourteen years in the classroom Mr. Steigerwald moved into administration when he became curriculum director for Oscoda Area Schools.  He later served as high school principal at South Lake High School in St. Clair Shores, Michigan.  At South Lake Mr. Steigerwald worked with staff in order to introduce student-centered programs such as character education and the Link Crew program.  Under his leadership South Lake increased its Advanced Placement offerings while developing programs aimed at reading and math support.
Mr. Steigerwald is very happy to be a member of the Norway-Vulcan community and is looking forward to becoming a part of the tradition of excellence set by Norway-Vulcan students and families.  He will be joined by his wife, their two children and their various pets.  Mr. Steigerwald enjoys fishing, cooking, running and being outdoors.  He will also talk to anyone who wants to talk about literature for just about as long as they could want!  His pet peeves include people who refer to or write about themselves in the third person.

Learning isn't limited to 20 min a day in a computer lab! We are NOW ANYTIME, ANYWHERE Learners. How can we make that Happen?" ---Steve Andrews
