Principal's Message
Greetings from the Principal's Office
It has been an honor and privilege to serve as your principal this year! Of my 20 years of teaching, it has been the most joyful experience of my career! Thank you for all of your love and support as we opened our new building. I am proud to say that it was a building where students were loved and grown each day.
Enjoy the Summer with your children, and best of luck next year in FIRST GRADE!
Love,
Mrs. Hansell
