Message from The Principal

Dear Jefferson Families,

I am delighted to welcome all of you to the new school year! I am excited and honored to begin my journey as the principal of Jefferson Elementary School, and I am looking forward to getting to know you and your children.

Our primary focus at Jefferson Elementary School will be to ensure a safe and engaging environment while we address the academic, emotional, and physical well-being of our students. Students and their families are at the center of all that we do. It is our goal that your child feels connected and valued as a contributing member of our school community.

I am eager to serve our students as they continue to learn and grow as kind citizens and hard-working scholars. Through a strong home-school connection and collaboration, we will ensure that our Jefferson Eagles engage in meaningful learning opportunities and have a successful school year! 

We cannot do the work we do without you, and each year we strive to strengthen our home-school partnership.  I welcome you to attend coffee chats, school site council meetings, PTA meetings, and Family Welcome Wednesdays.  Jefferson is very fortunate to have a wonderful parent/school community, and your support makes a difference. 

The Jefferson Staff is ready to work and assist you with anything you need.   Please let us know how we can serve your family’s educational needs in the coming school year.

I hope you stop by to introduce yourself. Should you have any questions or need anything, don’t hesitate to reach out to me.
In gratitude,
Becky Dougherty
