Dear Rudolph Gordon Families,

As we close out the first semester of the 2025–2026 school year, I want to take a moment to reflect with gratitude on all that has been accomplished together at Rudolph Gordon School.

This semester has been filled with many highlights—special events, student achievements, awards, performances, and everyday moments of growth that make us proud to be Gators. It has also included challenges, busy schedules, and moments that required patience, problem-solving, and teamwork. Through it all, one thing has remained constant: when we work together, our students benefit.

The success of our school is rooted in strong partnerships. Our students continue to impress us with their resilience, kindness, and determination to learn and grow. Our staff works tirelessly to support students academically, socially, and emotionally. And our families play a critical role by reinforcing expectations, communicating openly, and partnering with us to support each child’s success. It truly takes all of us—students, families, and staff—working together with shared goals and mutual trust to create the positive school community we are proud of.

As we head into winter break, I hope you are able to rest, recharge, and enjoy time together as a family. While this semester has been full, it has also been incredibly meaningful, and we are thankful for the collective effort that has made such a positive impact on our school community.

The future is bright at Rudolph Gordon School, and we look forward to continuing this important work together in the new year.

Merry Christmas to you and your family. Have a wonderful and restful break—we look forward to welcoming everyone back in January

Your Principal, 

Meredith Welch
