News from Virginia Lake School
July 23, 2019
Welcome Back to School!
Dear Virginia Lake Families:
Hello from The Lake! Can you believe we are in the middle of the summer? The first day of school is quickly approaching!
- Students in grades 1-6 will return to school on Wednesday, Aug. 14.
- Kindergarten and preschool classes will begin Thursday, Aug. 15.
I love collaborating and learning with my students, parents and families that make up our wonderful school community. It is an honor to be part of a faculty and staff committed to providing the best possible education for every child in a safe, nurturing environment. I believe the partnership between our families and our school is an important part of our success. Students benefit as parents and guardians are involved in their learning. It is our goal to have consistent communication between home and school and regular opportunities for families to learn about what is happening at school.
I am passionate about student learning and helping every child become life-long learners. I believe that school is a "mistake-making," safe place where all children must have opportunities to learn and grow. I am very passionate about collaborating with students, parents, and teachers to help our students achieve their absolute best.
I am looking forward to a great year at The Lake!
