Message from the Principal

Dear Powell Puma Families,

As we close out the month of May and prepare to welcome June, it is hard to believe how quickly the school year is moving along. Although this was a shorter week due to the holiday weekend, it was wonderful to have our students back in the building. Even in just a few days together, our classrooms were filled with learning, laughter, and excitement.

We are entering one of the busiest and most memorable times of the school year. Over the next few weeks, students will continue engaging in important learning experiences, celebrations, end-of-year activities, and opportunities to reflect on all they have accomplished this year. We are so proud of the growth our students have shown academically, socially, and emotionally.

Thank you for your continued partnership and support throughout the school year. Your encouragement at home and collaboration with our staff make such a difference for our students and school community.

We hope everyone had a restful Memorial Day weekend, and we look forward to a strong and positive finish to the school year together.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Warmly,

Catherine Han
Principal
