Mission

Principal 

I’d like to take a moment to introduce myself as the new principal of Ocean Breeze Elementary School (OBE).  I am extremely excited about working with you and the fabulous OBE staff to ensure that your child’s time at school is positive and productive.

 While I was raised in New England, I’ve been visiting family and family friends in Brevard County since I was young.  My husband and I have owned a residence in Satellite Beach for the last five years and are thrilled to be able to be here full time and participate in local “beachside” community events.   

I come to OBE with an educational background in early childhood education, history and social science, reading and language arts, and educational leadership.  I have served as a principal for the past seven years in two different Connecticut communities.  Prior to that, I taught seventh and eighth grade social studies for many years.  As both a teacher and principal, I believe that a strong home-school partnership is critical to student success at all levels. I am honored to have the opportunity to lead in such a beautiful and supportive community.

 In just a few days in Indian Harbour Beach, I have had the pleasure of meeting many school and district staff, government officials, local law enforcement personnel, and numerous friends of Ocean Breeze. I can already see that OBE’s dedication to excellence is strongly supported by both school and local community members.  My goal is to ensure that OBE continues to provide a safe and positive environment focused on student success.   

 I look forward to meeting each OBE family over the next few weeks and cannot wait to see all the amazing things our students will do in the 2018-2019 school year.

 See you soon,

Shelley A. Michaud, Principal
Ocean Breeze Elementary School                                                                                     

  Assistant Principal

I am looking forward to an exciting year at Ocean Breeze Elementary. I have been a teacher in Brevard County Schools System for 15 years and an assistant principal for 4 years.  Students, family, and staff are very close to my heart, I really enjoy what I do. 

I earned my B.S. degree and master's degree in elementary Education from the University of Florida (Go Gators!).  I also earned my specialist degree, toward my Doctorate, in Education Leadership from the University of Central Florida. 

I began my teaching career at Freedom 7 Elementary in Cocoa Beach, Florida. I taught kindergarten, 2nd, 3rd, and 6th grade.  I was then appointed assistant principal at Oak Park Elementary in Titusville, where I stayed for 3 years. 

During my teaching career, I was awarded Teacher of the Year, became a Nationally Board Certified Teacher, and was an Ambassador for the Teaching Exchange Program in Italy for 3 months.

 In the summertime, for 6 years, I enjoyed working with various companies at NASA.  Keeping busy over the summer, I was able to learn some valuable technology skills that assist me in my everyday duties as an administrator.  I was also rewarded with 2 trips aboard Zero G Weightless Flights out of Kennedy Space Center, an amazing experience that I love to share with my students. 

 I am looking forward to providing an innovative and positive learning experience for your child.  I am very excited about being the assistant principal at Ocean Breeze Elementary.
