A note from Mrs. Poole
We are so excited to begin this 2017-2018 school year! I hope each family had a wonderful summer filled with great times and wonderful memories.
I am beginning my third year as principal of New Providence Elementary School. I have been a part of the New Providence family for ten years. We opened our doors in August 2008. I am very proud to be a part of such a loving faculty and staff! I also am blessed to have wonderful students and families as a part of our family.
We have a lot of great events planned for this year. We could not do our work without the support of our wonderful New Providence PTA. They work tirelessly for our students and teachers. I encourage each of you to become a member of our PTA. If your schedule allows, we want each of you to get involved! We always need volunteers for PTA events. You can contact our PTA @ newprovidencepta@gmail.com.
To our new NPES families, we welcome you and are excited you've chosen to become a member of our New Providence family. Please become an active member of our school community by reading the NPES Student Handbook, reading/checking emails, and following NPES on Facebook and Twitter.
As principal, my role is to provide your child a safe and positive learning environment. I have included some ways you can help us keep your child safe and be successful at NPES. Please share this information with those who may help with your children, so they understand why we ask for certain things from our adults.
If I can ever be of any help, please don't hesitate to contact me.
Thank you for your support of New Providence Elementary School!
Debbie Poole
Principal
