Superintendent's Message

September 2025 Superintendent’s Message to the Community
 
As we begin the 2025-2026 school year, I would like to extend a warm welcome to all of our students, families, and staff. The leadership team and I hope that everyone has had a wonderful summer and is ready to return to school. The first days of school are always filled with energy, excitement, and anticipation, and it is exciting to see our classrooms, hallways, and athletic fields coming alive again. Our students bring a vibrant energy to our community, and it is good to see them again.
