Dear OLG Families,
It is my pleasure to personally introduce myself to each of you, in my new role as Principal. Many of you have known me in the capacity of teacher for some time, and for others, I sincerely look forward to getting to know you and your families. It has been a warm welcome so far, and I appreciate the support and kindness that has been shown to me since the announcement was made in June.
As a member of the OLG community for the past decade, I am an advocate for our mission and believe strongly in the importance of communication and building relationships that help us to grow and thrive. I care deeply about the success and growth of each individual within our learning environment, and work daily to support the needs of our teachers, students, and families. Working together with a growth mindset will be paramount to the success of your children and the school as well. I look forward to collaborating with you.
As I examine my role as Principal, a large part of my role is to help people be light, recognizing their own gifts and talents, and using them accordingly for the betterment of all. OLG is full of light, gifts and talents, in our students, our teachers, staff members, parents and alumni. When we put them all to use, OLG is a bright beacon in the greater community.
Moving into the 2023-24 school year, there are many wonderful things to be excited about, including a few staff changes, using the light of our teachers to the fullest. These changes were made with the best interest in mind for the community as a whole, and were announced earlier today to their prospective incoming homerooms. We are thrilled to share them with each of you now. Please read them in the section below.
Finally, please keep an eye out for news in early August about sign ups for “Meet Ms. Hobbs” opportunities prior to school beginning. For now, enjoy the summer with your families.
Keeping you all in my prayers and wishing you well all summer long.
