Dear Elevate Families,
What an exciting and joyful start to the new school year! Our team has loved meeting our new students – including our first TK class! - and welcoming back our returners. It is clear already that this is going to be a great year!
Across every campus and grade, we’ve seen our students shine as they transitioned into their new classroom. Our school team spent the first couple weeks getting to know our students, orienting them to the classroom, introducing our 7 Habits, and building classroom and campus community.
Our Back-To-School-Nights at all three campuses were well-attended and a great opportunity for families to meet and hear from the exceptional teachers who will guide and inspire our students learning this year.
As I’ve visited our campuses, I’ve been so impressed already by the many ways that our students, staff, and family members have modeled core elements of our school vision and mission.
Our Vision
We envision a kind, collaborative, and just world guided by empathetic and innovative leaders.
Our Mission
Elevate School cultivates leaders and positive change-makers by inspiring students to be excellent in academics, exceptional in leadership, expansive in creativity, and engaged in community. |
|
Even in our first couple weeks, students showed kindness in welcoming new students and are already collaborating in the classroom. School staff worked hard to get ready and model innovation and empathy on an hourly basis as they created the conditions for each student to learn and thrive. Elevate families jumped into new schedules and routines to ensure your child is set up to do their best at school.
It takes all of us to make Elevate a great place for every student – Elevate most definitely rises as One!
Thank you, families, for your support and partnership in making this a great start to the school year. We know that starting new routines and adjusting to a new school year takes a lot of effort, and we want you to know how much we appreciate you.
In Partnership,
Ryan Elliott
Executive Director
