Principal's Update

  • June 8

    Posted by L. Renee Lama at 6/11/2017

    Dear Students and Families,

         This year has been a year of great change.  We now have access to technology in a way that we have never had before.  We use it to enhance our current situation with the knowledge that this will support us being successful in the 21st century.  As an 8th grade group, you are special to me.  For many of you, your first day in middle school, was my first day as a principal. We have changed in the past three years, many of you are taller, older and more mature, and I have more grey hairs.  As a group, you have taught me to be more patient.  As a group, you are honest, caring and respectful. I hope you carry those qualities with you througout your lives. 

         To my 6th and 7th grade students, enjoy your summer.  Have fun, spend time with friends, and relax.  Do not forget, however, that learning continues.  Find a book series you enjoy and READ.  Sign onto the computer and wathc Khan Academy.  Practice your multiplication tables.  Watch the news and become aware of your world.  Be prepared to do even better next year.

         As always, it's hard to say goodbye to our friends.  I hope you look back on this year with happiness.  I hope you use the skills and knowledge you acquired here to support your dreams.  You are part of our legacy and within each of you is the potential for greatness.  Enjoy your summer and stay titan strong.
