A Message from Our Superintendent
Dear Salome Elementary School Families,
I am thrilled to welcome you all back to school for the new school year as the new superintendent. It is an honor to be leading our students on their educational journey, and I am excited to work together with you to support their growth and development. I hope you all rested and found time to enjoy friends and family over the summer break.
I would first like to welcome back two former teachers at SES, Mrs. Gemma Gomez, 4th grade, and Mrs. ChiQui Asco, middle school ELA. I am excited for them to be a part of the educational team. I would also like to introduce to you and welcome Ms. Diana Fritz who will lead the special education department, Mrs. Suzy Grubbs who will be teaching Kindergarten, Esmeralda Cruz in the business office, and Carol Hannah in the cafeteria.
Our goals are set, and we have a few big changes coming up this year that will assist in meeting those goals. Our behavior management system has been updated, so please carefully read the updated parent/student handbook when your child receives one and keep an eye out for helpful links and information regarding our new Behavioral Interventions Portal. We are also implementing a new ELA curriculum in K–8th grades. It is important that your child is exposed to the skills and resources that have been researched and tested to be effective, and I believe as a team, we made a decision that will positively impact instruction and achievement this school year and for years to come. As always, we encourage you to ask questions and communicate with your child's teacher to learn about these programs and how you can support learning at home.
I am looking forward to a successful and rewarding school year ahead. Your continued support and involvement in your children's education are invaluable, and I want to express my sincerest thanks in advance for working with me and the Salome Elementary School staff to help the students achieve greatness.
Sincerely,
Jennifer Walton
