Letter From the Principal
Celebrations for the Mesa Family
I wanted to take a moment to celebrate all the incredible work happening across our school, and to share how much I appreciate your ongoing support. Your commitment to helping our students succeed—whether it’s encouraging students to be at school every day or to do their best academically— has truly made a difference. The successful completion of our fall athletics season reflects the teamwork and dedication that extends beyond the classroom. We’ve also seen fantastic accomplishments in our fine arts programs, with memorable concerts, auditions, and impressive student creations that highlight our students' creativity and talent.
Most importantly, I am grateful for the role you play in your child’s education and development. Your involvement, encouragement, and passion are invaluable. Our students continue to shine because of the strong partnership between school and home.
Warm regards,
Mrs. Draughon
Principal
