Mrs. Bonnie Mwanda, Principal

Hello Ravens families! My name is Bonnie Mwanda and I am thrilled to serve as your principal! My husband, Blaise, and I have been married for twenty-two years and are parents to two wonderful children, Elikya and Jon. Blaise and I met while undergraduates at NC State University and still enjoy cheering for the Pack! I have served students in Union County Schools, Charlotte Mecklenburg Schools, Mason City Schools, Palm Beach County Schools, and WCPSS over my twenty-three years in education. My professional journey has afforded me the opportunity to engage with professionals and students from all over the world! I recognize, honor, and value the unique experiences and perspectives that each student brings with them each day. I strongly believe that every student deserves access to a quality education and will do all I can to ensure our students receive the best that Wake County Schools has to offer.
