Astoria Park Elementary School Parents, Guardians, and
Students: Welcome back!
I hope you had a safe, restful and relaxing summer. We are
very excited about the upcoming school year. We look forward to another year of
successes. To continue our quest to success, we need to maintain the
partnership in your child’s education with open communication.
In reaching our vision and mission, Astoria Park is based on
the worth and dignity of the individual child. Our school strives to create a
quality and caring learning environment that fosters a positive self-image
while preparing the student to become a responsible, self-motivated, independent,
and contributing citizen in an ever-changing world.
We know the value of a strong and healthy parent/school
relationship. I personally invite you to help us build our sense of community
and to strengthen our partnership. We have an excellent staff, wonderful
students, and dedicated parents which equals to a phenomenal Astoria Park
Learning Community. Together we can provide excellence in education and turn
visions into realities. I encourage you as parents and guardians to be part of
our school. The research overwhelmingly shows that parent involvement in
children's learning is positively related to achievement. We believe that a
strong partnership between the school, parent and student is paramount to the
academic success of our students. Therefore, a strong system of education that
allows all students to reach their potential is possible when schools and
parents work together. If there is anything that I can do to assist you, please
let us know.
On behalf of the all of the Panthers we serve at Astoria
Park Elementary, I thank you in advance for your continued support of our
school. Please have your children read, have conversations with them and enjoy
the time you have to share with your children. I look forward with enthusiasm
to another exciting and rewarding year.
We are great by choice. Panthers choose to be GREAT. WE
BELIEVE IN YOU!
Have a positive school year and expect great things,
