“I truly see the International Superintendent of the Year award as a shared honor with the entire International School of Stavanger community.” Dr. Duevel said, “Together, we have all worked hard to create a remarkable place of learning that is seen throughout the world as a place of value and respect.”
Linda received the award during AAIE's 49th annual conference in San Francisco, where international school leaders meet to promote international education. She will also be honored this month in San Diego at the National Conference on Education along with 50 state superintendents, and again at the White House in November 2015.
“With many nominees from around the world and one recipient each year, this award is an outstanding achievement in international education. At the International School of Stavanger, we’re proud of the vibrant learning community prospering under Linda’s leadership,” said Deputy Director and school parent, Gareth Jones.
Duevel is also an adjunct professor for Endicott College and frequently involved in school board governance training and accreditation work. As a female school head with 40 years in international education, she is particularly committed to helping women leaders become heads of international schools.
The International School of Stavanger in Norway is a private, English-language school for students from pre-school to grade 12.
