Royal Oak Schools announced the promotion of Anne Njovu to Supervisor of Elementary Education at Thursday’s board of education meeting. Njovu will fill the vacancy left by Lisa Shannon as she assumes a new role as a principal at Walled Lake Schools. 

Njovu has been working at Royal Oak Schools since Feb 2022 as the Assessment Data Research and Student System Information Coordinator.  She has been a 5th-grade teacher, a Staff Development Specialist, a District Data Coordinator and Trainer, and a Director of Instructional Support Services all before coming to Royal Oak.  

Patrick Wolynski said that Njovu has a very well-rounded education and very well-rounded experience and is very qualified for this role.

“I’m thrilled that I’m part of Royal Oak Schools,” said Njovu. “The end result is the happiness and the success of our students. Everything that we do day to day is for them and I love being a part of that.”

The district has posted for the Assessment Data Research and Student System Information Coordinator position. Njovu will transition into her new role as the district works to fill her previous position.
