Gator Family!

Welcome to Deep River Elementary School! It is an incredible honor and privilege to serve as your next principal. I am excited to join a school community with such a rich tradition of excellence and a strong commitment to helping every child succeed.

Throughout my career in education, I have been able to serve in a variety of different roles, ultimately bringing me to my current role in school leadership. With more than 10 years of experience serving students and families in Lee County Schools, I firmly believe that the foundation of every successful school is built on strong relationships, high expectations, and a shared commitment to doing what is best for every student.

Outside of school, I enjoy spending time with my amazing family and staying involved in youth athletics, particularly ice hockey. I also have a passion for continuous learning and professional growth, which has helped shape my leadership philosophy of always striving to learn, grow, and serve others.

Thank you for welcoming me into the Deep River family. I look forward to serving this amazing community. Together, we will build upon Deep River's strong foundation and ensure every child has the opportunity to learn, lead, and succeed.

I am excited to see all that we will accomplish together! Here is to a successful 2026-2027 school year!

Respectfully,

Mr. Cosimo
