Welcome back, Rams! I hope everyone had an enjoyable and restful summer break. I'm excited to kick off another fantastic school year filled with learning, growth, and community.
To our new families joining us, welcome to Mount Carmel. You are now part of a vibrant school community that values academic excellence, character development, and creating a nurturing environment for all students. To our returning families, we are thrilled to have you back.
This year, we have some exciting updates and initiatives to share with you. We will be launching a new math curriculum with more hands-on learning opportunities in STEM (science, technology, engineering and math). Our mission is to provide a quality education for all students in a safe, supportive environment that fosters success for all stakeholders. Our school motto is Excellence without Excuses.
Our goal at Mt. Carmel is to ensure that all of our scholars successfully master their educational and personal goals. The theme for the 2024-2025 school year is “Success without Excuses". We are focused on our commitment to doing everything possible to ensure that our scholars are successful and meet their grade level expectations.
Student safety, wellbeing and achievement remain our top priorities. We have enhanced our social-emotional learning program and counseling services to better support the whole child. Our dedicated teachers have prepared engaging, standards-aligned lessons to challenge students at all levels.
I invite you to attend our Sneak-a-Peek will be on July 20th from 4:30 to 6:00 PM and Open House on August 29, 2024. These will be two opportunities to meet our excellent teachers, see the school facilities, and learn more about the engaging activities we have planned this year. You'll also have a chance to get involved with our wonderful parent-teacher association (PTA).
Remember, we are partners in your child's education. We look forward to partnering with you as we work together this year to make this the best year for you and your child. Two-way communication and parental involvement are two areas that are key to the success of our scholars. We believe success is a team effort, and everyone has a part if we are going to reach our goals. Be sure to sign up for Class Dojo and to check our school-wide Smore and our Facebook page for updates regarding school events. All updates will be shared on these platforms.Please reach out to your teachers and my team whenever you have questions, concerns or ideas to share. Let's work together to make this an incredible year of learning and memories.
On behalf of our Ramily, thank you for entrusting us with your child! I look forward to seeing you soon!
Dr. Tenia M. Boone,
