Dear Parents/Guardians,

 

I am pleased to announce that I have been appointed principal of East Windsor     Middle School, effective July 1, 2010.  I have spent the last three years at EWMS, serving as Assistant Principal.  During this time, I have come to know the wonderful families in East Windsor, and I am very excited to have the opportunity to serve in the role of principal. 

 

I look forward to extending my relationships with students and parents, and I will look for input from families as the year progresses.  Together, we will be able to provide your child with a positive and productive learning experience during the middle school years.

 

Further, we are currently conducting a search for the Assistant Principal position.  We anticipate hiring my replacement by August 2010. 

 

Additionally, I want to inform you of an opportunity for you and your child throughout the summer.  The EWMS library will be open on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 11:00 a.m. to 2 p.m., beginning July 6^th and ending August 12^th.  Mrs. LaPlante, our library media specialist, will work with students and families who visit the library.  She has planned various activities and crafts, and there will be computer access and movies for your enjoyment.  We hope you take advantage of this wonderful opportunity to read, relax, meet friends, and get out of the summer heat!

 

Hopefully you will be able to visit EWMS during the Student/Parent School Visitation on Friday, August 27^th from 2:00-3:00.  If you have any questions or concerns,please contact the school at 860-623-4488.  I can be contacted directly via email at: khellerich@ewindsor.k12.ct.us.

 

On behalf of the EWMS staff, we look forward to working together with you during the upcoming school year, so that your child will be provided with a positive, productive learning experience.

 

Sincerely,

 

Kimberly D. Hellerich

Principal
