A Note of Gratitude from the Superintendent
​
Dear Families and Staff, 

As the holiday season approaches, I want to extend my sincerest wishes for a joyous and restful break.

As we approach the close of another year, I want to take a moment to reflect on the many accomplishments and shared experiences that make our school community so special. Together, we have celebrated successes, supported one another through challenges and continued to strive to provide a high-quality educational experience for all students. 

This holiday season, I extend my heartfelt gratitude to our dedicated staff, whose passion and commitment inspire learning and growth every day, and to our families and community partners, whose support and partnership help to make our schools vibrant and nurturing places for our students. 

During this holiday season, I encourage you to prioritize self-care, spend quality time with loved ones, and cherish the spirit of the season – whether it be through acts of kindness, reflection, or simply enjoying the company of those you hold dear.

Looking ahead, I am excited for all that 2025 will bring as we continue working together to support the success and well-being of every student in our care. 

Wishing you a safe and happy holiday season and a fulfilling New Year! 

Happy Holidays!

Brian Pulvino
