The start of a new school year is always invigorating and brings with it a sense of excitement associated with any new beginning. While much was accomplished last year throughout the District, the 2017/18 school year promises a renewed commitment to meeting the educational needs of all our students. The Board of Trustees and I are committed to working together as a team with all parents/guardians, students, teachers, staff members, and the entire school community to provide excellent educational programs in a safe and nurturing environment. Our partnerships with all members of the community will continue to be a central focus of our work as a school district.

As a District, we recognize our important responsibilities to assist all students to: 

• Become contributing members of our society.
• Improve academic, critical thinking, and basic skills, and acquire important knowledge.
• Build constructive, consistent, and compelling systems of values and accompanying attitudes.
• Instill within each an appreciation for the American heritage and the responsibility for citizenship in our democratic society.
• Prepare for a satisfying and useful career.

Working as partners with all members of the District’s educational community, I am confident that our students will be prepared to meet the challenges that lie ahead. The Board of Trustees and I wish you a most successful 2017/18 school year.

Scott Scambray, Ed.D.
