From the Principal From the Principal

Happy Wednesday Cherrydale Families!


As we wrap up the school year, I want to take a moment to express my heartfelt appreciation to our students, staff, and families for making my first year as principal such a memorable and rewarding experience. It has been an incredible journey getting to know this amazing school community, and I’m so proud of all that we’ve accomplished together.


To our dedicated staff – thank you for your tireless commitment to our students’ growth and well-being. To our families – your partnership and support have made all the difference. And to our students – your curiosity, kindness, and hard work have been a joy to witness every day.


A special shoutout to our 3rd graders as they prepare to take the next big step and head to Saltar’s. We’re so proud of you and wish you all the best in your new adventure!


Wishing everyone a restful, fun-filled summer break. We look forward to welcoming our returning students back in the fall, ready for another great year of learning and growth.

Have a wonderful summer!


Warm regards,

Christine Firth

Principal

We make every effort to return items that have names in them. To maximize the likelihood of getting lost items back when they are left on the playground, please make sure your student's belongings are clearly marked.
