RICHMOND, Va. — Come Tuesday, all local schools are back in session. In honor of Back to School Tuesday, we asked Principal David Peck with Richmond Public Schools to host our #CBS6TakeoverTuesday on Instagram.

Peck is the new principal at Chimborazo Elementary School; he’s one of eight new principals at RPS. He formerly served as assistant principal at Mary Williams Elementary School in Prince William County.

Peck previously taught at J.G. Hening Elementary and Falling Creek Elementary schools in Chesterfield County.

He holds a Doctor of Education in curriculum, teaching and leadership from Northeastern University.

Takeover Tuesday was launched by CBS 6 as a way to introduce you to different faces of the Richmond community. We hope you follow along Tuesday, to see what the first day of school is like through the eyes of a principal.

We are doing this all summer long, and at the end, you vote for who had the best takeover and we donate to the winner’s chosen nonprofit.

Principal Peck chooses Safe Harbor, a nonprofit that supports those who are experiencing or have experienced domestic and/or sexual violence.

Had a great time reading to my #Chimbojags @chimborazoes. Teachers, principals, students, and parents all get a case of the "first day jitters" now and then!
