Dear Parents and Students:
It is my privilege to welcome you to the 2008-2009 school year at Rocky Mount Elementary. I am thrilled to be starting my first year as Principal of this outstanding Georgia School of Excellence. The Rocky Mount community has welcomed me with opened arms and I know that I am in a truly special place. As we embark upon this year, we will continue to hold ourselves to the same high expectations as we expand our horizons beyond excellence!
As a veteran educator, I know that the start of a school year brings excitement and energy to the students, parents, teachers and community. I think we would all agree that there are few things in this world more satisfying than seeing our children excited about learning, applying what they have learned and then building on that knowledge to expand their understanding. It is essential that we continue to provide an intellectually stimulating and technology enriched environment for our 21st century students at Rocky Mount.
The PTA Board members have worked tirelessly over the summer to plan for the 2008-2009 school year. History will repeat itself again as we have another exciting year of working together to ensure that ALL Rocky Mount students are welcomed, respected, challenged, enriched and provided a quality of education that is unsurpassed. I encourage every parent to join the Rocky Mount PTA. Our PTA is extremely active and helps us accomplish many of our goals that the taxpayer dollar does not cover. Our PTA is extremely active and helps us accomplish many initiatives that your taxpayer dollars do not cover.. Last year’s PTA helped us purchase print cartridges, technology, Weekly Readers, and registrations for teacher in-services. PTA also supported our school-wide enrichment activities such as Kroger Math Night, Fall Festival, the Sock Hope, and classroom celebrations. We invite you to join us in our efforts to allow our children to reach their full potential. If you are unable to contribute time during the school day, there are many occasions to help from home. Please check out our bulletin board for volunteer opportunities. Join PTA, “Every Child One Voice”.
I look forward to developing our partnership as we work together to provide an exciting and nurturing atmosphere of excellence.
Sincerely,
Gail May
