Our Principal

My name is Carlottia Ruff and I am delighted to introduce myself as the Interim Principal at Saint Paul Music Academy for the start of the 2026-27 school year. It is an honor to be a part of this incredible learning community to help foster the success and well-being of our students.

I have been dedicated to the field of education for 17 years, and during this time I have had the privilege of working with students, parents, and educators from diverse backgrounds. My educational journey has included receiving a B.A. in Biology from the illustrious Alabama State University, an M.A. in Curriculum and Instruction from the University of Detroit Mercy, and an Ed.S. in Administration from Concordia University. Each experience has deepened my passion for contributing to a positive and inclusive learning environment.

I firmly believe that education is a collaborative effort between the school and the home. Together, we can foster an environment where our students thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.
