Principal's Message
Even though the sun is still shining and our calendars say August, PDES is buzzing with back-to-school energy! Lots of teachers and staff have been working hard to prepare our school and their classrooms for our students' arrival. Many have stopped by my office to say hello, with their Lakeshore Learning bags in hand and I have overheard many talking about where to find the best sales for school supplies. I have met with numerous teachers already to discuss passionate projects , was gracious to have help for multiple interviews this summer and was thankful that some came by to share their knowledge and help me transition to a new school. Teachers even rescheduled orientations to allow me to attend them all! These behaviors say a lot about the core values our community holds.
This week, during teacher orientation, we will explore some of our core values and begin to set direction for the year, together. I hope to inspire you, motivate you and empower you to embrace your passions in education. I also hope you know how honored I am to be your principal.
See you Wednesday!
