In Their Own Words: Families Celebrate Our Principals During Appreciation Month

Earlier this month, we invited families across our school community to share their thoughts about our school leaders through a brief online survey. The response proved remarkable, parents, guardians, and students took time from busy schedules to articulate what makes their principals exceptional. These authentic reflections, gathered throughout October in honor of National Principals Month, reveal the profound impact our administrative leaders have on daily school life. We’re grateful to everyone who participated and are pleased to share a few of these genuine expressions of appreciation.

Thank you for welcoming my babies to your school. We appreciate everything you’ve done for us. Keep shining!

Mrs. Jones is so kind! She goes out of her way to make a connection with every student. When my son helped another student on the swing she definitely made sure I knew and that Dj knew how special it is to help others. She is the kind of kindness she preaches.

“Dear Ms. Jones, I just want to take a moment to say thank you, from the bottom of my heart. As a parent, nothing means more to me than knowing my daughter is in a place where she is not only learning, but also growing, feeling safe, and supported, and that’s what you’ve created at Plato. Your kindness, your dedication, truly stand out. It’s clear that you care deeply about each child’s success and that care makes all the difference. I see it in my daughter, in her confidence, her excitement for school, and the way she speaks so highly of you. My daughter and I are so grateful for you. Again, Thank you for everything you do.

Respectfully,
M.B.

Thank you for being such a positive influence on all the children. My son is genuinely excited to be there because of you. Your uplifting attitude seems to inspire your entire staff, and it makes a real difference—he enjoys chatting with you and always wishes you a great day. I truly hope you continue to impact every child who crosses your path. Thank you for your daily dedication to helping him reach his goals.

Principal Jones truly demonstrates her love for her school and students every day! I love seeing the students run up to give her a hug or eagerly wave at her in passing. She represents everything a principal should be!
