Tiffany Buzan named principal of Maple Glen Elementary

Westfield Washington Schools has announced Tiffany Buzan as the new principal of Maple Glen Elementary School, effective July 1, 2025. She brings a wealth of experience and a deep commitment to the Westfield community.

Maple Glen Elementary, 17171 Ditch Road, opened in 2006 and is one of the district’s six elementary schools. Following a thorough selection process, Westfield Washington Schools Administration and a committee of parents worked collaboratively to identify the next leader for Maple Glen Elementary. Buzan’s dedication to student success and leadership experience made her the ideal choice.

Buzan has been a dedicated member of the Westfield Washington Schools family since July 2017, serving as the Assistant Principal at Carey Ridge Elementary. Her career in education began in New Palestine Community Schools, where she spent over a decade teaching kindergarten and first grade at Sugar Creek Elementary from 2003 to 2014. She later advanced into leadership, serving as Assistant Principal at Sugar Creek Elementary for three years before bringing her experience and passion for education to Westfield.

“I have truly enjoyed working alongside the amazing staff, students, and families at Carey Ridge Elementary,” Buzan said. “Being part of such a supportive and caring community has been an honor. I am excited to continue serving Westfield Washington Schools in this new role and look forward to building strong relationships with the Maple Glen Elementary family.”

A dedicated lifelong learner, Buzan earned her bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education from Ball State University in 2003. She continued her education at Indiana Wesleyan University, obtaining a master’s degree in Education in 2007 and a certification in School Administration in 2015.

Buzan and her husband, Larry, are proud members of the Westfield community. They have three children: Ella, who is attending Ball State University, and Jackson and Caroline, who are students at Westfield Washington Schools.

“We are thrilled to welcome Tiffany Buzan as the new Principal of Maple Glen Elementary,” Associate Superintendent Dr. John Atha said. “Her dedication to student success, leading the PLC process, and passion for the Westfield community make her the perfect fit to lead Maple Glen into the future.”
