Pine Island Update
Friday, May 28, 2021
Dear Families,
Today I announced to the students that I will be retiring at the end of this school year and my last day as Pine Island Principal will be June 9, 2021.
I want to thank each and every one of you for all your support, and for entrusting me with your children. I am honored and feel so fortunate to have been given the opportunity to be part of the Comstock Park community. I have been with Comstock Park Public Schools for 24 years with 21 of those years as a Principal. I have so many wonderful memories of my time at Comstock Park and I am sad to say goodbye. During my time here, I have fostered relationships with many of you and I will cherish the memories and friendships I’ve made during my time. Comstock Park has been a very special place for me and I will miss everyone.
Although it’s hard to say goodbye to the parents and adults, the hardest part of leaving is saying goodbye to the students. I have loved watching them grow up into amazing young leaders and I will treasure my memories of them all. My hope was always that when they left Pine Island that they would be a better student and person because of the values that we taught them. I am reminded every day that they have the potential to do anything they set their minds to and hope they all remember that!
-Mrs. Reehl, Principal

BUILDING HEALTHY COMMUNITIES PARENT SURVEY
Dear Parents,
This past year, your child’s school implemented a healthy eating and physical activity program called Building Healthy Communities. An important part of the program is an evaluation at the end of the school year. It means a lot to us to hear from the parents of the students in the schools with which we partnered. This evaluation provides our staff with the necessary feedback to make changes and improve upon our program for the next school year. It also allows us to document all of the positive outcomes of the program.
We understand that due to the school closure that some of the programing may not be complete. Please answer each of the questions to the best of your ability.
The survey should only take 2-3 minutes to complete. Just click on the following link to take the survey electronically, by June 1st, 2021.
