Principal's Note
Teacher Appreciation Week
You are awesome!
Teachers, we want to say thank you for your unwavering dedication and commitment to surely making our school a 21st century campus that caters to the needs of the whole child. I see you go above and beyond whether it be in tutoring, CAR, home visits, meeting with parents, afterschool or an extracurricular activity. You do whatever it takes. We are most grateful to you for all that you do.
A Joke and a Quote
As we ponder with awe your work with our students, we want to share this joke and quote with you from the book "Teachers. Jokes, Quotes and Anecdotes".
FATHER: "Tell me how school went today. How do you like it?"
BILLY: "It's hard to like a place that's haunted, dad."
FATHER: "Haunted! What are you talking about?"
BILLY: "It's the new teacher of mine...she keeps talking about the school spirit!"
Thank you for cultivating a warm student culture with social emotional learning everyday...And the quote...
A good teacher has been defined as one who makes himself/herself progressively unnecessary. - Thomas J. Carruthers
Again, thank you for building student agency making them more and more take ownership of their learning and setting them on their learner's path.

Habits of Mind: Be at school and be on time.
This includes getting to class on time. By requiring students to be on time, we send the message that school and the classes are important. We help develop the students’ sense of responsibility, and we help break some students of the habit of making weak excuses.
Mission Statement
our mission is to promote student success through a high quality education. For every child to succeed, we must hold students and ourselves to high expectations. Only the courageous pursuit of excellence will lead to success.
