Corron Mission Statement
From the Principal
Last week I made one last appeal to our parent community to provide feedback on the 5 Essentials survey. We were at a 16% completion rate with a need for 20% in order to receive the feedback data. Not only did our parent community deliver, but they surpassed the goal by getting to a 34% completion rate! The information provided will help our school team assess what’s going well and what areas we need to improve in moving forward.
This response is just one small example of the level of engagement our Corron families demonstrate. Our Donuts with a Grown Up is another example - it was nice to see so many parents and grandparents bright and early on Monday morning. A special thank you to our organizers and volunteers, many who showed up before daylight to set up and make sure everything was ready to go at 7:15.
We have many upcoming events this Spring, and would love to see similar turn-outs. We will definitely need additional volunteers for these events as well, so please help out if you are able. It takes a village!
