"Auburn Pride Starts Inside"

Principal's Corner
Dear Auburn Eagle Families,
I hope this message finds you and your family well! As we continue our school year, I want to take a moment to express how important your partnership is in your child's learning journey. Together, we can create a warm, supportive environment where every student thrives, both academically and emotionally.
We know that when families and schools work hand in hand, amazing things happen! Here are a few ways you can stay connected and support our school community:
Stay Involved: Whether attending school events, joining our parent-teacher organization, or simply chatting with your child about their day, your involvement matters more than you know.
Volunteer: We welcome parent volunteers during recess, field trip chaperones, special events (Ex: mystery readers). If you have some time, we’d love to see you around the school! Please contact the main office to provide your interest as well as dates and times of availability.
Open Communication: Feel free to reach out to your child’s teacher or me if you have any questions or ideas. We’re here to listen, and we value your insights.
Celebrate Learning at Home: Ask your child about what they’re learning, read together, and explore new topics together. These moments make a huge difference!
Our school is a community, and together, we can make it a place where all students feel safe, happy, and ready to learn. I look forward to continuing this journey with you and hope to see you around the school soon!
Warmly,
Principal Byas
