Principal's Message

Dear Parents and Guardians,


As we approach fall break, I want to thank you for your partnership and the warmth you bring to our school community. This week, we’re focusing on student well-being, continuity of learning, and clear communication to help students reset, recharge, and return ready to learn with energy and curiosity.

We appreciate your ongoing support with your child’s learning and with the school community. Thank you for staying engaged with conferences, check-ins, and school events. Your trust and collaboration help us meet every child where they are and celebrate their strengths.


What to Expect This Week

Teachers will reinforce daily routines and predictable schedules to support student self-regulation. You may notice short, engaging warm-ups or mood checks at the start of the day. Our staff will continue to prioritize social-emotional learning and safe, welcoming spaces for all students. If your child feels anxious about the break or changes in routine, please reach out to their teacher or our school counselor for support.

You can reach us with questions or concerns at any time. Our goal is to keep communication open and responsive. If your family will be traveling or has different schedules, please communicate with your child’s teacher to plan for any missed work or accommodations.

Thank you for being an essential part of our school community. Your collaboration helps us create a safe, loving, and productive environment for every child. Please take time during the break to rest and recharge. We look forward to welcoming students back with renewed energy and a sense of belonging.

If you have any questions or need support before the break, please don’t hesitate to contact us.


Warm regards,


Will Zwingmann, Ed.S.

Principal
