Welcome back to an exciting school year! As your principal, I am honored to lead this incredible school community. Together, we will create an environment where every student feels valued, supported, and inspired to reach their full potential.
This year holds endless possibilities. It’s a blank canvas waiting to be filled with your dreams, aspirations, and accomplishments. Embrace the opportunity for growth and transformation. Challenge yourself to set ambitious goals and work towards them with dedication.
At our school, we believe in nurturing academic excellence and character development. We celebrate diversity and cherish the unique perspectives of each student. Success is not just about grades; it’s about hard work, resilience, and a growth mindset.
Parents and guardians, thank you for trusting us with your child’s education. We value your partnership and look forward to creating a nurturing environment together.

We are thrilled to celebrate four outstanding Plato Academy St. Petersburg alumni—Mackenzie, Maddy, Mikayla, and Maya—who have been inducted into the National Honor Society at Hollins High School. These young women exemplify academic excellence and leadership, reflecting the strong educational foundation they received at Plato Academy. Their achievement not only highlights their personal dedication but also demonstrates how our teachers’ commitment to excellence continues to shape our students’ success long after they leave our halls.
