About Erika Pierce
Erika began her educational career in 1996 as a 6th grade teacher at Meadowbrook Intermediate School in College Place, Washington. After four years there, she took a job in the Hillsboro School District as the counselor at Groner. In 2002, she became the counselor at Imlay Elementary School (she spent the 2003-04 school year as a 5th grade teacher), and in 2008 she made the move to W.L. Henry. In the 2015-16 school year, Erika spent half her time as the school’s counselor and half as its PLC coach. As such, she facilitated PLCs using data to help improve instruction and, ultimately, to increase students’ academic performance. She accepted her current position at Minter Bridge in 2016, and has done an exceptional job as the school’s principal. She has a passion for equity, classroom guidance, and community-building, and is a collaborative leader.
