Dear Parents, Families, and Friends,
My name is Melissa Valdez and I am honored to be your principal. I’ve enjoyed meeting with many of you and am looking forward to building relationships and partnerships to ensure positive and fun educational experiences to your (our) children. I strongly believe, and research continues to show, that building relationships between home and school is a key factor in increasing student achievement.
Our Christmas break is fast approaching marking the halfway point of the school year! I can confidently state it has been a successful one so far. Regardless of which holiday families celebrate, we can all agree it is a time for all of us to focus on our loved ones. It is also a time of reflection for our families and staff to look back on the first half of the year and strive to improve on what we have done so far. In many sports, there is a halftime where teams and their coaches discuss strategies for the second half of a game. We are constantly taking on this approach and look forward to improving student outcomes with your assistance.
Let’s finish 2018 with the same drive and determination we have given thus far so that our students have every chance to succeed!
In January, I look forward to hearing all the interesting stories our students had over the Christmas Break.
We would like to wish everyone a safe and restful holiday season!
Happy Holidays!!
Together we can Build Tomorrow for our Students!
“Building Tomorrow Together”… Go Eagles!!!
Sincerely,
Melissa Valdez
Principal, Memorial Middle
