Dear Walton-Verona Students, Staff, and Families,
I hope you had a wonderful summer filled with rest, fun, and great moments with your loved ones. There has been a familiar excitement is building across our district as we prepared to welcome everyone back for a brand-new school year. I am proud to share that we have started this school year strong and our students are already learning!
To our students: I am very happy to see your energy and smiling faces in our hallways once again. A new school year is a chance to discover new passions, build new friendships, and achieve incredible things. Remember that every day is an opportunity to learn and grow, and we are all here to support you every step of the way. Bring your curiosity, your creativity, and your kind hearts with you.
To our dedicated staff and faculty: Your passion for our students and commitment to their success is the foundation of everything we do. Thank you for the countless hours you've spent preparing for this year. Your hard work in the classroom, on the fields, and in every corner of our schools makes Walton-Verona an exceptional place to learn and work. You are the heart of our school community, and I am honored to serve alongside you.
And to our incredible parents and community members: Your partnership is invaluable. Education is a team effort, and your support—whether it's volunteering, attending school events, or simply encouraging our students at home—makes a profound difference. We look forward to continuing our collaboration as we work together to provide the best possible experience for our students.
This year, let's focus on our shared commitment to excellence, respect, and growth. By working together, we will continue to build a strong, vibrant community where every student can thrive.
