Principal’s Welcome Message
Welcome to G.R. Saunders Elementary, home of the Skyhawks!
At our school, we believe that every child has the ability to grow, thrive, and achieve success. Our dedicated staff work each day to create a safe, caring, and inclusive environment where students are encouraged to be curious learners, critical thinkers, and kind citizens.
Our focus is on strong instruction in literacy and mathematics, while also placing equal importance on well-being, the arts, and physical education. Through collaborative learning, innovative teaching practices, and evidence-based strategies, we are committed to meeting the needs of all learners.
We know that education is most powerful when schools and families work together. At G.R. Saunders, we value open communication and the support of our families and community partners. Together, we strive to nurture not only academic growth, but also the social, emotional, and physical well-being of each child.
As we move through this school year, we are excited to build on our shared goals, celebrate achievements, and continue creating a positive school culture rooted in respect, empathy, accountability, community, and honesty.
Thank you for visiting our website, and for being part of our school community. We look forward to working together to make this year a successful and memorable one for all of our students.
