September Newsletter

We kicked off our school year reviewing our schoolwide expectations. Students have been practicing what it looks like to be RESPECTFUL, RESPONSIBLE, and SAFE.

Charles Kelly students, teachers, and staff shared a moment of silence at 9:11am to honor those that lost their lives and sacrificed so much. Teachers had classroom discussions with students and answered questions in a student friendly manor.

Back to School Night was a great success. Thank you to all the families that took time out of their busy schedules to join us for the evening. We had 78 families (with multiple siblings) attend and over 30 pizzas consumed! We enjoyed meeting and dinning with you.

Hello! I attended Indiana University of PA (IUP) for undergraduate school and became a 4th grade teacher then a 2nd grade teacher at Highland Park. After the classroom, I became a lead teacher at Hillcrest. While I was a lead teacher, I attended Saint Joseph's University for my Masters to become an assistant principal. Here I am now, happily at Charles Kelly! I am very passionate about Restorative Practice and Equity because I believe it is important to help provide tools and a voice to ALL students. Outside of school, I love to play video games, read fiction, swim, and take care of my many plants.
