Dear Parents and Students,

I want to welcome you back to F.J. DeLaine Elementary for the 2014-2015 school year. I hope that you enjoyed your summer break and that you were able to spend time with your family. I am eager to begin the new school year and look forward to the return of our students.

Our goal at DeLaine is to provide the opportunity for our students to receive the best educational opportunities possible. Our staff has been working throughout the summer attending workshops and training opportunities in various subject areas in an effort to continue to grow as educators. We are excited and expect to see great things from our students.

Throughout the year, we will provide opportunities for families to be involved at DeLaine. I encourage you to build relationships with our staff and communicate regularly with your child’s teacher in order to fully maximize your child’s educational opportunities.

I have an open door policy and you are welcome to stop by anytime that I am available if you would like to meet with me.

Let’s work together to make this a great year!

Sincerely,

Michael Riggins

Principal
