Primos Message 9/2/26

Dear Primos Families,

What a wonderful first few days of school! I am incredibly proud of our students, staff, and families for making the start of the school year such a positive one. I want to thank our families for your patience, support, and partnership as we worked through new routines, transportation, arrival, and dismissal. Your partnership makes a tremendous difference in the success of our school. As we look ahead, I am excited about all that this school year will bring. We have an amazing community at Primos, and I am grateful every day for the opportunity to serve as your principal. The first week is almost complete, and we are off to a great start! I couldn't be prouder of our Primos students and staff.

Here’s to a fantastic school year ahead!

Sincerely,

Mr. Casertano

School Principal
