Dear Students, Staff, and Parents:
Welcome to the 2024-2025 school year! Our commitment at Saddle Rock Elementary School is to provide a safe and intellectually challenging environment that will empower students to become innovative thinkers, creative problem-solvers and inspired learners prepared to thrive in the twenty-first century.
It has been an honor to be a part of the Saddle Rock community for over a decade, and I am humbled to serve as your principal. It is a beautiful school tucked away in a quiet scenic corner of Hawthorne Lane, which provides a perfect setting for children to grow and bloom. Thank you for sharing your children; they are truly a gift to us.
One of our goals at Saddle Rock is to serve and nurture all of our students. We are committed to making every year an exceptional experience for all students. Our teachers work collaboratively in order to impact their practice in ways that will lead to better results for students, teams, and our school. Our hopes and dreams for our students are to engage them in academic rigor, compelling them to become ideamongers who contribute to classroom learning. We want every Saddle Rocker to become the very best person he or she can be, to live the very best lives they can live, and to contribute as best as they can to their families, schools, communities, and our world.
Your child's elementary school years are a special time in his or her life. During this time, children undergo important developmental changes. It is also a time when children become more autonomous as they transition from "learning to read" to "reading to learn." It is my belief that parents are the first teachers of their children and they play a central role in their child's education. I invite you to participate in open, honest and continuous communication with your child's teachers to ensure a successful home-school partnership. I encourage you to tell our teachers about your child's needs throughout the year so that he or she has "THE BEST" educational experience.
As principal, it is important to me that Saddle Rock staff, parents, and students become partners in this journey that we have embarked upon. It is essential that all of us come to school every day happy and ready to give it our best. A positive attitude will enable us to become problem solvers in a fun, nurturing environment.
In conclusion, I wish you all a wonderful school year. If I can be of any assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me and know that my door is always open. It is my great honor to serve as your principal.
With pride and appreciation,
Luci Bradley
