HIGHLAND PARK, IL — The North Shore School District 112 Board of Education on Tuesday night approved the appointment of four administrators for the 2026-2027 school year in Highland Park and Highwood.

The appointments include Jeremy Wickham as assistant superintendent for finance and operations, CSBO; Andy Kramer as principal of Ravinia Elementary School; Angela Andrews as associate principal of Edgewood Middle School; and Timothy La Brie as associate principal of Indian Trail Elementary School. All four will begin their new roles on July 1, 2026.

The board action fills leadership positions at both the district and school levels ahead of the 2026-2027 school year. According to the district, the appointments cover finance and operations, an elementary school principalship, and associate principal posts at a middle school and an elementary school.

Wickham joined District 112 in 2019 as an associate principal at Oak Terrace School and later moved into district leadership overseeing technology. He has served as executive director of technology and operations for the past two years. The district said he has worked closely with schools and departments across District 112 and holds a Chief School Business Official endorsement from Northern Illinois University, a superintendent endorsement, and is pursuing a doctorate in educational leadership.

Kramer is currently principal of Whittier Elementary School in Waukegan, a position he has held since 2022. He previously served as assistant principal at Little Fort Elementary School in Waukegan and began his career as an elementary teacher. The district said he holds a master’s degree in school leadership and principal preparation from Concordia University and a bachelor’s degree in elementary education from the University of Minnesota Duluth.

Andrews currently serves as assistant principal at Elmwood Park High School. She previously worked there as dean of students and has also worked as a science teacher.

La Brie is now assistant principal at Little Fort Elementary School in Waukegan and previously worked as a special education teacher and case manager at Grayslake North High School and as a special education teacher in North Chicago.

“These are critical roles, and we were looking for educators who understand what strong school leadership demands,” Deputy Superintendent Monica Schroeder said. “Each of these administrators has a record of leading with integrity, supporting students and staff, and building positive school communities. We are proud to welcome them to District 112.”
