Dear Families,

I am delighted to extend a warm and heartfelt welcome to each one of you as we embark on an exciting new academic year at Parkway Elementary School. Whether you are joining us for the first time or are already part of our school community, we are thrilled to have you here.

At Parkway Elementary, we believe that education is a journey of growth and discovery, not just for our students but for every member of our school family. Our dedicated team of educators and staff is committed to providing a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment where your child can flourish academically, emotionally, and socially.

We understand that each child is unique, with their own talents, interests, and aspirations. Therefore, we strive to cultivate a diverse and inclusive learning environment that celebrates individuality and promotes a sense of belonging. By fostering a strong partnership between home and school, we aim to create a collaborative community that empowers every child to reach their full potential.

Throughout the year, we will be offering a wide range of educational opportunities, extracurricular activities, and special events that will enrich your child's educational journey. We encourage you to actively participate in school life and engage in the various activities we organize.

Communication is vital in establishing a strong and supportive relationship between the school and families. Our doors are always open, and we welcome your feedback, questions, and suggestions. Together, we can create a positive and nurturing environment that allows our students to thrive.

As we embark on this new chapter together, let us embrace the challenges and successes that lie ahead with enthusiasm and optimism. Your presence and involvement are integral to our school's success, and we look forward to building a meaningful and lasting partnership with each and every one of you.

Thank you for entrusting us with your child's education. We are excited to journey alongside you and your family throughout the coming year and beyond.

Here's to a fantastic year filled with growth, learning, and unforgettable moments!

Warm regards,

John D. Ridenour, Jr.

Principal, Parkway Elementary School
