Mr. John Montanaro

Dear Students, Families, and Staff,

Welcome to the 2025-2026 school year! I hope you all had a restful and enjoyable summer.

Our dedicated maintenance staff has been working tirelessly to prepare all our buildings for your return, ensuring a safe and welcoming environment for everyone. We're also thrilled to announce significant technological upgrades across the district. Our Wi-Fi infrastructure has been completely upgraded and replaced, and new desktop computers are currently being installed for all staff members. These improvements will provide a more robust and efficient learning and working environment for the entire school community.

Our campuses are buzzing with activity as our talented band students and various fall sports teams begin their preparations for an exciting season. Their dedication and hard work are truly inspiring, and we look forward to supporting them throughout their seasons.

This year, our district's overarching goal is to foster a culture of encouragement. By building each other up, we can create a stronger, more supportive school community. This means actively recognizing the efforts and achievements of our students, the dedication of our staff, and the invaluable contributions of our families. When we encourage one another, we build trust and open lines of communication, ensuring that every member of our district feels seen, heard, and valued.

Our focus on encouragement will manifest in concrete ways. We will be working together to create an environment where teachers, staff, students, and parents all feel comfortable sharing ideas, asking for help, and celebrating successes, both big and small. By intentionally practicing encouragement in our daily interactions, we can cultivate a powerful sense of community that will positively impact student learning and well-being. Together, let's make this year a testament to the power of a supportive and encouraging school culture.

We are all looking forward to a successful and enriching school year. Let's work together to make it a great one!

Sincerely,

John Montanaro Superintendent
