Principal’s Corner

As the new school year approaches, we know the children of our community have great
potential, and it requires every individual in their lives to purposefully work together for their
success. We believe that close cooperation between our school and your home is essential for
your child’s optimal education experience because we believe that “no significant learning
occurs without a significant relationship” (Comer, 2004). Children are born with inquiring
minds, and we must be committed each day to engage in nurturing that innate sense of inquiry by
providing them with quality and engaging opportunities to learn. We must teach them to think
critically, to problem solve, and to know how to access information- thereby equipping them
with the necessary skills to compete in a competitive and global society.

The staff at Redemptorist St. Gerard is continually learning and growing through collaboration
with all stakeholders and by engaging in professional development so that we have the necessary
skills to empower and teach our students. We welcome your participation and support this school
year and solicit your membership in the Home School Organization (HSO). A collaborative
effort will enable us to reach our collective and individual goals and celebrate the achievements
of our students.

We feel that open and clear communication between school and home is important to the success
of our educational program. We look forward to working with you and your child and to a
wonderful, productive school year filled with rich academic experiences supported by
technology and individualized instructional techniques! We appreciate your cooperation and
support and welcome your suggestions and ideas for improvement. Please come visit our school
where safety and student success always come first!

With Leadership Pride, I am
