Dr. Payne began his career in education in the late 1980’s in New York City.  After teaching in New York City, Dr. Payne taught for several years in Osaka, Japan.  In the 1990’s, Dr. Payne moved to Southern California where he worked in public education as a teacher and a school administrator.  Over the past 15 years, Dr. Payne has served as a Principal in the Irvine Unified School District and the Corona-Norco Unified School District.  Dr. Payne holds a Bachelor of Arts from Hunter College, a Master of Science in Administration from Pepperdine University, and a Doctor of Education from the University of Southern California.  Both of Dr. Payne’s children attended Citrus Hills during their Intermediate years, with his son graduating from UC Berkeley and his daughter currently attending UCLA.  

“It is my great honor and privilege to be appointed as the Citrus Hills principal this year. Citrus Hills has a long tradition of excellence with an experienced teaching staff who care deeply about the students they serve.  I look forward to building positive relationships with our students, our parents and our faculty to support our students’ academic development and social-emotional growth.  The family-school partnership is critical in preparing our students for college and career readiness.”
