Office of the Principal

Dater Elementary School is a magnificent home for learning, playing, creating, and growing! We have a highly dedicated staff focused on each child, and they work to give each student the best learning experience possible each and every day. The parents who support our Dater students are a phenomenal resource to us. We work to partner with them through the PTO and individual families to meet children's academic, social, and emotional needs. The six pillars of character govern our Dater family: Respect, Responsibility, Kindness, Caring, Fairness, and Trustworthiness. We learn and work daily under the motto: WORK HARD AND BE KINDER THAN IS NECESSARY.

We work to communicate with Dater families continuously. In addition to this section of the Dater website, watch for Dater Details (our newsletter) published each month of the school year. They will be distributed via email and posted on this website's Communication Section. These communications will help explain our shared vision of teaching and learning, highlight the exciting things happening in our classrooms, and contribute to establishing a safe and organized school building.

I look forward to a great school year!

Courtney J. Rejent, Dater School Principal
