All Things Baker!
Principal's Message!
I cannot express how excited I am to have the school year started! It has been a busy start but, even with the addition of all of our new families, it has been a smooth start. This is due in large part to the dedication of our teachers and all of you, our amazing families!
As I dropped my daughter off at college this week, I remembered how I felt when I dropped her off her first day of kindergarten. It was scary and exciting all at the same time. My heart was bursting with pride at how brave she was but a little heartbroken that she was so independent. I say all this to let you know that I understand what a great privilege it is to take care of your kiddos, what an important job it is to provide a safe and nurturing environment where they can grow and learn and enjoy every success possible. As I left my daughter to begin the next stage of her journey in life, I was thinking about all the kiddos and families I serve at Baker. I am honored to be a part of your journey this year and promise to do everything in my power to make it a successful, productive, and positive experience!
Thank you all for your support and at Baker Elementary we believe In a World Where You Can Be Anything . . . Be Kind!
Sincerely,
Danielle Wallace
