Principal’s Message to Families

Dear Families,

As we close out SY25-26, there is so much to celebrate from this school year! We are deeply grateful for the partnership, support, and commitment of our students, staff, and families. We are especially proud to share that we met our student academic growth goals, school readiness/attendance goals, as well as our social emotional learning goals. This achievement reflects the commitment of our students, families, and staff; as well as the importance of prioritizing a strong home and school connection. Thank you for your time,  ideas, feedback, and support.

As summer begins, we hope your family finds time to relax, recharge, and enjoy special moments together. Have a wonderful summer, and we look forward to seeing our students and families again in August.

With gratitude,

Shannon Mueck

Principal
