To All Parents and Guardians of Wesley Gaines Elementary,
Welcome to a new school year. I wanted to take moment to introduce myself as your new Principal and to establish some goals for the 2011- 2012 school year.
My name is Jeff Bowers and I have been in education for sixteen years. I have been in a leadership role at a high performing school for the last five years. Increasing parent involvement to affect a home/ school partnership I believe is crucial to continued student success.
The continued academic achievement of Gaines students is a priority that I share with all of you. By working together we can help all students to achieve academic success.
We need to continue to provide our students with quality teachers that utilize the latest data driven instructional methods. We need to continue to provide our students with a safe and well maintained school. We need to continue to provide our students and our families with a welcoming environment at a school that understands the benefit of teamwork and student success.
Together we can reach these goals. Together we can establish an environment where all students can be successful. Working together, we can benefit the students, all our Grizzly families, the school and the community.
I look forward to serving as the instructional leader of Wesley Gaines Elementary and meeting all of our families.
Sincerely,
Jeff Bowers
