Superintendent's Message
October Cornerstone: Teamwork
We cannot achieve our promise to design success for every student without great teamwork.
As incredible as our teachers are, we can only ensure that all students learn at high levels through great teamwork. Families play an essential role in that teamwork and we hpoe you recognize how important that role is. Without family support, we will never be able to help each student realize their full potential.
Thank you for your support in encouraging students to attend school this year. Regular attendance is a crucial factor in the success of students at school. When students miss school, they miss critical opportunities to get direct help and support from their teacher and chances to interact and learn through collaboration with their classmates.Iit makes all of the difference when parents make attendance at school a priority for their children.
