My name is George Erdahl the new Principal at the Lower Brule Elementary School. his is my first year at Lower Brule after having served as Middle School/High School Principal at Marty Indian School. This is my 33rd year in Education and 15th year as an administrator.

I have been married to my wife Becky for 38 years. We are blessed with 4 grown children. Kyle-37, Josh-34, Jorgan-28 and Kaliegh-26. We have also welcomed 4 grandchildren to our family, Isaiah, Charleigh, Kamri and Thomas and we are expecting two more grandchildren by the end of this year.
My goals at Lower Brule are and have been wherever I am is to maintain as safe a learning environment as possible. So, the kids feel good coming to school and that they are comfortable talking to me and doing anything I can do to help them with all situations. My door is always open for communication for students and parents, so anytime you need to come and see me, feel free to stop in and say hi and discuss any issues.
