Dear Parents,
In this second semester of the 2022–23 academic year, I am glad to greet both our returning and new parents. We are eager to collaborate with you to ensure that our kids are given every opportunity to succeed. We know that both their home and school must work together to ensure the academic success of our children. We want you to know that we will do everything possible to fulfil these commitments. We are confident that effective collaboration with you will significantly improve your child’s education. As partners, we each share responsibility for our children’s success.
Well Being & Safe Environment for Students’ Learning
For both the faculty and the students, this semester is critical. Academics and extracurricular activities that assist learning will be more of our focus. Our faculty is prepared to give students the necessary support they need to succeed and is dedicated to helping students. We can accomplish this when we collaborate and work together with you.
To ensure a safe learning environment, we must adequately follow the school policies in all facets of school life. From that perspective, some students might be breaking our school’s rules, particularly regarding vaping and taking mood-altering substances. We value our collaboration with you to support our students’ learning and well-being.
As we begin this semester, our goal is to provide the best possible experience for our student body, which includes ensuring that our school policy is followed.
Please be aware that any student infractions will be dealt with in accordance with our school policy, which may include disciplinary action. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.
