A Message from Our Principal

Dear Parkway Families,

We are delighted to announce that the school year has commenced on a high note. We recently held a school-wide assembly to review our code of conduct, reaffirming our unwavering commitment to fostering a respectful and positive learning environment for all our students.

Furthermore, we’ve introduced an exciting new initiative - a mascot election! This project not only provides a fun and engaging way for our students to learn about the democratic process but also showcases the leadership and learning skills of our second graders who are serving as campaign managers for this election. Their hard work will lead to our students experiencing the joy of voting as we select the name of our school mascot.

One important reminder: We’ve noticed an increase in students struggling to manage their emotions at school. To support their well-being, we encourage you to limit screen time at home and prioritize unstructured play. Playtime is crucial for developing social skills, fostering creativity, and allowing children to express themselves.

Thank you for your ongoing support in making this school year a success. We look forward to continuing to work together for the benefit of our students.

Take Care,

Suzanne Barbi
