Dear James H. Harrison Family and Community,
My name is Nema Manuel and I serve as Principal of James H. Harrison Elementary School. As a lifelong educator, I enjoy working with students and watching them grow into learners, thinkers and problem solvers. I love learning and applying new information and skills. Professional development, podcasts and books are my favorite learning methods at this time. As learning evolves, so do my preferred learning methods.
My philosophy is that all children can learn and achieve. Our roles as educators are to spark curiosity, build student confidence, facilitate learning and celebrate student successes.
Goals for James H. Harrison Elementary School
The partnership between home and school is important. When we work together, our children will only succeed.
Nema Manuel
Principal
We strive to collaborate with families to inspire students, regardless of culture, abilities, or current situation to become confident learners and to build a strong foundation, allowing them to reach their full potential towards being responsible and productive members of a global society.
Our purpose is to build a strong foundation so our students will excel and achieve any academic or personal goal set before them. We commit to provide high quality, data driven instruction to our students every day. We prioritize helping all students reach their full academic potential in order to develop the next generation of global leaders. This will be accomplished by all members of our school community (students, parents and educators) working together to create a positive learning environment.
