Dean's Office
Mr. Jesus Zamudio
I was born and raised in Chicago, Illinois. I attended CPS schools from K – 8 before graduating from suburban Wauconda High School. I later matriculated at the University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign where I received a Bachelor’s of Science in Mathematics. I later returned to the same school in order to receive a Master’s in Educational Policy and Organizational Leadership.
I began working in education as a math teacher in Round Lake from 2014 until 2021. At Round Lake High School, I am currently one of the Dean of Students while also coaching boys’ basketball.
Mr. Jay Iden
I am a Dean of Student Services for Round Lake High School. This is my 11th year at Round Lake High School. I have also taught Social Studies and the Business Incubator.
I received my Bachelor’s of Science in Secondary Education from Illinois State University and my Master’s in Educational Technology and Digital Learning from the American College of Education.
Mr. Benjamin Williams
I am a Dean of Student Services, Assistant Varsity Football Coach, Student Mentor, and the Black Student Union Sponsor for Round Lake High School. I am a graduate of Wheaton Warrenville South High School, College of Dupage (A.A. Business Law), Illinois State University (B.A. Criminal Justice), and National Louis University (M.A. in Teaching).
I have spent the past four years as a classroom teacher in both the Social Studies and Multilingual Education Departments where I gained insight, appreciation, and respect for RLHS students and the surrounding Round Lake community. I am excited for the opportunity to serve as Dean of Students for the foreseeable future with the goal to “inspire and empower students to construct a thriving future."
