Dear Students, Parents, and Guardians,
I am looking forward to an incredible 2023-2024 school year! I hope you've had a restful and rejuvenating summer break.
The start of a new school year is a special time filled with anticipation and new beginnings. Our dedicated and talented staff and teachers work diligently to create an engaging and supportive learning environment that will inspire you to grow academically, socially, and personally.
As we go on this journey together, let's remember that each day presents an opportunity to learn, grow, and make a positive impact. Whether you're returning or joining us for the first time, know that you are an important part of our school community, and your unique perspectives and talents enrich us all.
We're committed to fostering a culture of collaboration, respect, and kindness. We encourage you to approach challenges with resilience, ask questions with curiosity, and build friendships with empathy. Our goal is to create an environment where everyone feels valued, included, and empowered to achieve their best.
Parents and guardians, your partnership is invaluable to us. We invite you to stay connected with us through on-going communication, school events, and other opportunities to engage with our school community. Your involvement is essential to creating a supportive network that nurtures our students' success.
Mark your calendars for our Open House night on Thursday September 7th, where you'll have the chance to meet your teachers, learn more about our exciting curriculum, and connect with other families.
As we embark on this new school year, let's embrace the challenges and triumphs that lie ahead with enthusiasm and a growth mindset. Together, we will make this a year to remember, full of learning, laughter, and shared achievements.
Here's to a fantastic year of learning and growth!
Best regards,
Silas Coellner
Principal, ORRJHS
