Monthly Principal Newsletter

June 2026 Parent Newsletter

Home of the Lions – “Roaring with Respect, Responsibility, and Readiness”

Dear Lewisdale Families,

          As we enter the final month of the school year, I would like to thank each of you for your continued support, partnership, and commitment to our students. Together, we have celebrated accomplishments, overcome challenges, and created meaningful learning experiences for our scholars.

          At Lewisdale Elementary School, we remain committed to helping every student strive for excellence academically, socially, and emotionally. As we approach the end of the school year, students must continue attending school each day, arrive on time, and remain focused on learning. Final assessments, including PGCPS Benchmarks for students in Kindergarten through Grade 5, will continue throughout the month and provide valuable information regarding student progress.

          This newsletter is especially meaningful to me as I prepare to say farewell after 15 wonderful years serving the Lewisdale community. It has been an honor and a privilege to work alongside our dedicated staff, supportive families, and amazing students. Thank you for allowing me to share in your children's growth and success every day. Lewisdale will always hold a special place in my heart.
