From the desk of Dr. Amy Frank, Principal!
Owens Family,
I write to you today with mixed emotions, as I share with you that I have accepted a new opportunity and will soon begin my new role as the first principal of Elementary School #59. I am honored to have been selected for this position. This transition is not without sadness. In the almost nine years that I have been principal at Owens, I have been blessed to work with amazing educators who care deeply for their students, with parents who support their children’s education, and with students who have great talent and potential. I have been inspired daily by the great work that takes place in this building. I will forever be grateful for my own learning and growth that has taken place on this campus. I will be here at Owens until Spring Break supporting the principal as they transition into their new role.
Thank you for the wonderful memories, Dr. Amy Frank
Familia Owens,
Les escribo hoy con emociones encontradas, mientras les comparto que he aceptado una nueva oportunidad y pronto comenzaré mi nuevo rol como primera directora de la Escuela Primaria #59 de Cypress Fairbanks ISD. Es un honor para mí haber sido seleccionada para este puesto. Esta transición no está exenta de tristeza. En los casi nueve años que he sido directora en Owens, he tenido la suerte de trabajar con educadores increíbles que se preocupan profundamente por sus estudiantes, con padres que apoyan la educación de sus hijos y con estudiantes que tienen un gran talento y potencial. Me he inspirado diariamente por el gran trabajo que se lleva a cabo en este plantel educativo. Siempre estaré agradecida por mi propio aprendizaje y por el crecimiento que ha tenido lugar durante mi tiempo con ustedes. Estaré aquí en Owens hasta las vacaciones de primavera apoyando al director/a en su transición a su nuevo rol.
Gracias por los maravillosos recuerdos, Dra. Amy Frank.
