Dear Bailey’s Upper Families,
Hope you had a wonderful week. I want to take a moment to share that the staff and community were excited to hear the announcement of your new principal, Ms. Holly Dowling. Ms. Dowling has a wealth of experiences as you have read through the Region 2 message. I am excited for this community to have such a dedicated leader. To that end, I want to express my sincere gratitude to all of the staff, students, and families for making my time here such a special experience. I have enjoyed every moment and have been fortunate to learn along the way. I will return back to central office and continue work in the ESOL office as a Coordinator. With best wishes for the remainder of the school year.
-Kanchana Iyer
