Well hello there Elk Plain families and welcome to the 2022-23 school year. I speak for our entire staff when I say we’re so excited for a new year and seeing you all again soon!

It’s going to be a year of changes for all of us. We’ve got new staff members to introduce. We start and end ten minutes earlier than last year. We’ll be eating lunch together in the gym again. Many after-school activities that disappeared during the pandemic are returning. It’s exciting,
but there’ll also be a learning curve for everyone.

One thing hasn’t changed: It’s Elk Plain. That means, even with new faces, we’re a small, stable community of adults and kids learning and growing together. There will be bumps in the road, but we know we can get through anything by working together. I look forward to seeing you if possible during our Open House on September 1st from 4:30 - 6:00. If you can’t make that, I hope our paths cross in the opening days of school the following week.

Sincerely,
Tom Mitchell
Principal
