As we experience the final days of the 2012-2013 school year, I encourage parents/guardians to remain active and interested in your child’s education. While hectic, the year’s end enables us to take time for celebrating our students and our staff through awards programs, retirement celebrations, and other special activities. On my visits to virtually every classroom that started late in May and continue throughout this week, I am so impressed with the wonderful balance between keeping students academically focused while also allowing them to experience projects rich in tradition and specialty days that make childhood memories. To help ensure that every child finishes the year on a positive note, I ask parents/guardians to remind their children about good behavior and positive choices in school and to/from school.

 Please join me in thanking our faculty, staff, and administration who work hard to help every child learn and grow. We appreciate the parental and community support of our students, schools, and district. I would also like to thank our Family School Associations for their generosity to fund activities and programs throughout the year and especially their support of year-end celebrations. Thanks as well to our Education Foundation for their support of teacher grants, technology, and student awards. Finally, I want to acknowledge our Community Superintendent’s Advisory Team and our School Safety and Security Stakeholder Committee who were active through the school year. These groups served as key communicators in working with the Board, Business Administrator, and me. These teams will continue next year so please look for information to continue your membership and/or join these important committees.  

 As you may or may not be aware, during the summer our school district is still quite active with educational and enrichment programs for students and curriculum work and professional development for staff. Additionally, please note that from June 24^th though August 23^rd, our district is on summer hours as part of our energy savings initiative. The district office and the schools are open Monday – Thursday for extended hours and are closed on Fridays. Throughout the summer, please look for updated information on the staff homepage and via email.

 Wishing you and your families a safe, enjoyable summer. Please do not hesitate to contact our schools or the district office. Thanks again and take care,

 Annette C. Giaquinto, Ed.D.
