Dr. Michael Roe has been an educator for more than 20 years.  His various roles included: ASB Director; Head Coach; Class Advisor; Leadership Advisor and Educator at both the middle and high school level.  In addition to his role in K-12, Roe has presented and consulted at the national level on organizational development, student connectedness, principal leadership, empowering teachers and civic engagement. 

His work with the Restorative Schools Coalition led to partnering with the Obama Administration and Harvard University on curving the school-to-prison pipeline where he authored a comprehensive plan to build ethical and engaging school communities where all stakeholders have an authentic voice and role in making critical shifts in improving school culture.  This work culminated when Roe was invited to speak at the White House to address these critical needs.  He continues this work in his current role as Executive Director of Leadership, Innovation and Outreach for the Riverside County Office of Education.  Roe is a product of the Inland Empire earning his BA’s from Cal Baptist University in Philosophy and Political Science. 

He earned his Master’s in Educational Leadership and went on to garner a Doctorate in Organizational Leadership from the University of La Verne.  He continues his education with the University of Notre Dame’s Executive Integral Leadership program and the Mendoza School of Business.  He is married to his wife Jessica (also an educator) and has four children: Elyse (18); Kennedy (16); Riley (11); and Mowgli (8).  The family is held together by their German Shepherd, Ryder.
