Dr. Roger Fuller

Roger J. Fuller, PhD
CEO and Co-Founder - Gryphondale

Dr. Roger Fuller is uniquely qualified to lead Gryphondale Education Services with his experience and interests in educational innovation, technology, leadership and change. From 1999-2013, he worked as the upper school principal at Milken Community High School in Los Angeles, California. Roger returned to Maine in 2014 to take on the responsibilities as the executive director of the Maine International Center for Digital Learning.  In early 2015, he worked to establish Gryphondale with the help and advice of a great team.

Roger began his career in Maine in education in the 1970s. In 1972, Roger accepted his first position at Lewiston High School. In 1977, he moved to Oak Hill High School where he worked as a teacher, department chair, and theater coach. During his tenure at Oak Hill, he worked to build one of the first educational intranets in the state of Maine, and was a founding member of MaineNet, a system to create digital links between schools in Maine.

As a recipient of the Milken Educator Award in 1993, Dr. Fuller has continued his interest in education innovation, and joined Milken Community High School in 1999, becoming the principal of the school in 2000. Dr. Fuller has a BA in English and MA in English from the University of Maine at Orono. He received his Masters in Education in Educational Psychology from University of Virginia in 1979, and a Masters in Science in Technology Education from Thomas College in 1989. From Antioch University in Ohio, Roger received a PhD in Leadership and Change in 2009-2010.  

Roger is pleased to return to Maine and be a part of the Gryphondale Education Services family.  He states, "effective digital learning provides a methodology for student and teachers to expand resources, as well as engage in the creation of new learning. An understanding of effective digital learning is essential in the modern world."  Roger's interest in e-Portfolio development has been a long standing commitment to creating ways for students to demonstrate expertise in traditional and in non-traditional academic settings.

Roger enjoys photography, especially photography of landscapes and scenery and willingly shares photographs of Zion and Bryce canyons to be used as screen savers.  He is also a bit of a fantatic about spinning on the stationery bike, having almost made the journey of twice around the globe without having gone anywhere.
