Message from Our Incoming Principal
 

Dear Sanchez Community,

I am thrilled to have been selected as the new principal of Sanchez Elementary!    I was impressed with the dedication of staff and parents to the hiring process and appreciate all the time and care that was taken to make the selection.  I assure you I will work hard to meet your expectations.

Over the next two months I will be closing a significant book in my life, transitioning from twenty-two years in Brighton School District 27J.  While I am anxious to get started, I still have considerable responsibilities in 27J and many projects yet to finish before the end of the school year.  I will be able to spend a half day each week and a few full days this spring learning about Sanchez, planning for next year, and getting to know all of you. 

I am looking forward to meeting all the children especially the 5th graders who wrote wonderful letters to the Superintendent, Dr. Garcia telling him what kind of principal they thought Sanchez needed.  When children invest time into something, such as writing persuasive letters, I think it is important for them to know that someone read the letters and there is a direct response.  Unfortunately a few students will be disappointed; they wrote that they wanted a “boy” principal.  But most students wrote that they wanted someone who was caring and who liked kids.  I definitely meet that request!  

Before the end of the school year I will be hosting an informal gathering to meet the parent community, please look for that announcement in future communications.  If you would like to make an appointment to visit with me personally, I will be available at the school beginning July 30, 2007.

Sincerely,

Doris Candelarie
