School 48 Phalen Family Update
PLA@48 Important Parent Update
Paren Update
Dear PLA@48 Parents,
Thank you for being a part of the Phalen Leadership Academy family. I hope that you are safe and well. It has been exciting to welcome our scholars back this school year. We are really pleased with the kind of school and culture of excellence that we are creating together. Even in the uncertainty of the pandemic, our school and our scholars have continued to thrive. We look forward to continuing our work together. There are certainly more great things to come.
This evening, we announced that our principal, Dr. Peterson, is leaving PLA@48 to pursue other opportunities. We thank her for her leadership. We thank her for her commitment to our schools, our scholars, and to you. We wish her all the best in her future endeavors. Moving forward, Mr. Lawrence Courtney will pick up the baton. Mr. Courtney will continue to lead the PLA@48 family in collaboration with school staff and our incredible teachers.
Many of you are already familiar with Mr. Courtney. He worked with many of our families as we began to launch Louis B. Russell as a PLA school. He was previously an administrator at the A-rated PLA@103. He plays an integral role in all of our Indy PLA campuses, and he is always there to support and encourage our scholars. Mr. Courtney keeps his doors open for parents to ensure that we are working together and giving scholars our best. We look forward to his leadership at PLA@48. We will continue the school year strong.
Please do not hesitate to reach out to me or Mr. Courtney if you need anything at all. Thank you again for being a part of PLA. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to me at nfama@phalenacademies.org or Mr. Courtney at LCourtney@phalenacademies.org. You can also call 317.226.4248.
Best regards,
Nicole Fama
PLA Regional Director
