Principal Letter

Dolphin

December 4, 2023

We hope this letter finds you well and filled with the same sense of pride and joy that we experienced during the recent INSCOM community performance. We want to express our heartfelt gratitude for the wonderful contribution of our amazing and talented music teachers, Ms. Amanda Maguire and Ms. Hailey Schmitt, as well as the 40 first-grade students who volunteered to participate in this special event. 

Ms. Maguire and Ms. Schmitt demonstrated exceptional skills and dedication in guiding our performers through the preparation and execution of the INSCOM community performance. Their commitment to developing a love for music and performance in our students was truly evident, and we are grateful for the positive impact they have on our school community. 

We would also like to extend our appreciation to the 40 first-grade students who eagerly volunteered to be a part of this event. The selection process, involving the return of permission slips and a random drawing of names, added an element of excitement, we commend the students for their enthusiasm. Despite being a relatively small group, the voices of these first-grader students resonated with pure joy throughout the building, creating a memorable and uplifting experience for everyone involved. 

Additionally, we would like to extend our gratitude to INSCOM for extending the invitation to our school. The opportunity for our students to showcase their talents in a community setting is invaluable, and we appreciate the collaborative spirit that events like these foster. 

Families are encouraged to see an encore of the performance this week featuring all or our first-graders. Please check with your child’s teacher for specific dates and times. We look forward to more opportunities for our students to shine and share their talents in the future.
