DES Leadership staff

Dove Elementary School is one of 14 innovative campuses across Texas named “2025 Schools Transforming Learning” by the N2 Learning Principals’ Institute (PI). These diverse campuses are recognized for making exceptional strides in creating transformative learning environments for all students.

“Being named a School Transforming Learning is an incredible honor for Dove Elementary,” Principal Heather Landrum said. “This recognition reflects the intentional work of our staff, the engagement of our families, and the meaningful growth of our students. We are proud of the progress we’ve made and remain committed to providing an exceptional learning experience for every child.”

Nominations were open to more than 550 campuses led by principals who have participated in the Principals’ Institute over the past 13 years. The Institute is a statewide professional learning experience designed to challenge traditional thinking and empower school leaders to foster innovative learning practices. 

Dove Elementary's leadership team and the campus were recognized for this distinction on May 5, 2025, at the N2 Learning Annual Conference in Lakeway, Texas.
