Her experience, dedication, and student-centered approach will serve East Central well as we continue building on our tradition of excellence.”
Throughout her career, Rosfeld has provided leadership in curriculum, assessment, scheduling, career and technical education, graduation pathways, dual credit programming, work-based
learning, school accountability initiatives, and implementation of the New Indiana Diploma. Her work has been guided by a belief that every student deserves meaningful opportunities to
discover their passions and prepare for a successful future.

I am excited for the future and remain committed to fostering a culture of high expectations, strong relationships, and opportunities that empower every student to achieve their goals,” she added. “I am grateful for the trust placed in me and look forward to leading and serving alongside this incredible school community.”
Rosfeld and her husband, Jason, are lifelong residents of the Sunman-Dearborn Community School Corporation and East Central alumni. They have raised four sons who attended Sunman-Dearborn, reinforcing their belief that every student should have access to opportunities that support their individual goals and aspirations.
She will succeed Tom Black, who had served as principal since 2018.
