Welcome back Stevenson Families!

The staff and I are happy to welcome you to the 2009-2010 school year. The start of the year is always a busy time in our school, filled with the excitement and energy of students and teachers engaging in a new year of learning and discovery. It is important that every child is successful and the Stevenson staff is committed to that goal. If you are new to our school, welcome and please stop by to say hello.
Our PTA and booster association, Families for Stevenson (FFS) have a lot great activities planned for our school this year. To make them successful, we rely on the support and assistance of our parents. When you receive the calendar of events, start planning how you can get involved and help our school. Parents are a major part of what makes Stevenson so successful!
You may have noticed some changes in our teaching staff. Mrs. Torres is teaching Kindergarten in Room 8. Ms. Carrillo is in Room 7 and will be teaching Kindergarten and First grades. Mr. Sommerville took a leave of absence and we are fortunate to have Mrs. Rotunno who will be teaching first grade in Room 3 along with Mrs. Diamond who is in Room 5. Mrs. Baade has been assigned second and third grades. Mr. Lukehart will be teaching third and fourth grades. Mrs. Hill is now teaching fifth grade in Room 20. You will have an opportunity to meet your child’s teacher at Back to School Night on Wednesday, September 16th.
The goal of our school is to provide each student with a challenging and rigorous curriculum appropriate to his/her academic level. We believe every child will achieve academic success. To this end, every child will be provided with quality instructional experiences which recognize, support and maintain high expectations for all students.

Our mission is: To ensure the learning success of all of our students and to inspire them to become productive members of society who take an active role in positively changing the world around them.

The partnership between the home, the school, and the child is a key factor in your child’s success in school. You are an important part of what makes Stevenson School so special.

Sincerely,

Debbie Ginnetti, Principal
