All Things Baker!
Principal's Message!
Hello All,
Welcome Back! I cannot express how happy I am to see everyone back in 2020! I want to also thank you so much for starting the second semester so strongly, on time, and ready to learn. I get so excited in January because it is such a chance to make changes that will hopefully help us grow! Progress is such an impactful word. Everything in our lives is about progress, right? Are we progressing in our careers, with our families, with our relationships?? I think it is paramount to express to our kiddos that progress is all we ask for, not perfection, not flawlessness! We want them to know that progress, headway, growth, is all we can ask for and what we celebrate.
Life is a journey that progresses down a path that allows us to learn and grow at every step. Let's celebrate the progress in the new year and cherish every step along that path!
We are so proud of our progress so far this year and look forward to more gains in the new year! Thank you all for your support and sharing your little people with us! Please remember, at Baker Elementary we believe In a World Where You Can Be Anything . . . Be Kind!
Sincerely,
Danielle Wallace
