Principal's Message

Dear Families,

As we approach the close of this remarkable school year, I want to take a moment to reflect on the growth, perseverance, and joy that our students have experienced. Serving as your principal for the 24/25 school year has been both a privilege and an inspiration. Every day, I witnessed our children’s eager minds and warm hearts take on new challenges, build lasting friendships, and explore the wonders of learning. This wouldn’t have been possible without your unwavering support.

I am deeply grateful for your trust, involvement, and encouragement throughout the year. Whether it was cheering from the sidelines at school events or engaging in meaningful conversations about classroom learning, your partnership played a critical role in creating an environment where our students could thrive. Our successes, both big and small, are a shared achievement that unites us all as a community.

As summer approaches, I encourage you to embrace this well-deserved break as an opportunity to rest and spend quality time with your children. Make sure to take time and enjoy the warm weather and lots of fun and relaxing events. Please continue to challenge them to read and maintain their curiosity and exploration beyond the classroom. We look forward to welcoming everyone back in the fall with renewed energy and fresh ideas for another exciting year of growth and discovery.

Thank you for a wonderful year and for continuously investing in the journey of our young learners. Wishing you all a safe, joyful, and restorative summer break.

Sincerely,

Aaron Peak, Principal
