Principal's Message

Dear Parents and Guardians,


As we approach the final week of school before the Christmas Holiday break, I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere appreciation for your unwavering support and partnership throughout the year. Together, we have created a nurturing and inclusive educational environment where our students thrive and grow.


The holiday season is a time to celebrate the joy and warmth that comes with spending time with loved ones. It's an opportunity to reflect on the year gone by and cherish the precious memories we have created within our school community. I am immensely proud of our students for their hard work, dedication, and resilience, and I know you share in this pride.


During this holiday break, I encourage you to embrace the spirit of the season and prioritize family time. This is a time to disconnect from the busyness of everyday life and create lasting memories with your children. Engage in activities that bring you closer together, whether it's baking cookies, playing games, or simply sharing stories and laughter. These moments are invaluable and contribute to the holistic development of our children.


As we take this well-deserved break, I want to express my gratitude to our exceptional team of teachers and staff. Their commitment to providing a high-quality education and nurturing environment for your children is truly commendable. They have worked tirelessly to ensure that our students receive the best possible support and opportunities for growth. Please join me in thanking them for their dedication and passion.


In addition, I would like to extend my heartfelt appreciation to all our parent volunteers and the broader school community. Your involvement and support have made a significant impact on our students' educational journey. Your contributions, whether big or small, have helped create a vibrant and thriving school community.


Lastly, I would like to remind you of some important dates. Our Christmas Concert will take place on Thursday, December 14th at 5 pm featuring Pre-K through Second Grade students. It promises to be a delightful showcase of our students' talents and hard work. Additionally, our annual Winter Break will start on December 18th and end on January 1st. Please make the necessary arrangements for your child's care during this time.



Thank you for entrusting us with the education and well-being of your children. It is an honor and privilege to serve as the principal of this wonderful school. I look forward to continuing our partnership in the new year, as we work together to provide the best possible educational experience for our students.


Wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas and a joyful, prosperous New Year!



Warmest regards,


Will Zwingmann, Ed.S.

Principal
