My name is Gary Prince, the lucky person to preside as the principal of such a great school. Welcome to Dean Allen Elementary School home of the Mighty Mustangs, a state designation of a High Achieving school, and approximately 750 of the finest students in the Clark County School District and definitely the greatest teachers and staff as well!
I was born and raised in New Harmony, Utah, a thriving metropolis of 98 people in Southern Utah. I received my Bachelors of Science in Elementary Education from Southern Utah State College, now Southern Utah University at Cedar City, Utah. I received my Masters of Curriculum and Instruction from the University of Nevada at Las Vegas (U.N.L.V) and my administrative credentials from Nova Southeastern University here in Las Vegas. I am married to a beautiful girl from London, England, and we have five children, four boys and a girl.

Mr. Gary Prince |
You have selected a wonderful school to attend. As stated above, Dean Allen was recently awarded the state designation of High Achieving, the second highest rating available from the state. Our next step is to become an Exemplary School. Together, with your help and the fine staff that we have, I feel that this can be done.
We have many wonderful activities going on here at Dean Allen to reinforce your child’s education. My favorite activity that I do each month is the Principal’s Award Luncheon. Students are recommended for this great honor and then their names are randomly selected and are invited to have lunch with me. I usually cook hamburgers on the grill or if the weather is not friendly, I have pizza delivered. Teachers are also doing many wonderful things within their classrooms to make your child’s education fun and exciting. Other ways that we recognize your child’s efforts is the Honor Roll assemblies held each year. Students in grades three through five have the opportunity to receive trophies purchased by our wonderful PTO organization for the A and AB honor Roll. Students K-2 receive recognition on the bulletin board.
I hope that you enjoy your experience at Dean Allen Elementary School. We encourage you to come and help out in your child’s classroom, get involved with PTO, and just be a friendly face on campus. Welcome!

I am very excited and honored to serve the children, parents, staff, and community of Dean Allen Elementary School this year as your new assistant principal. One of my passions is working with students and parents in order to incorporate high educational standards for everyone.
My experience over the last 12 years has included teaching students in three elementary schools in the Clark County School District. The past five years I have served as Learning Strategist, specializing in teaching writing.
I have also served as an art specialist, first grade teacher, second grade teacher, third grade teacher, and literacy trainer for the district.
