Potrero Elementary School

From the Principal

Making Tracks to Success

I would like to take this opportunity to welcome you to Potrero Elementary School. The Potrero staff and I look forward to working with you and your child this 2004-2005 school year. My goal at Potrero is to establish a positive learning environment for all children. With your support and cooperation, I am confident that our students will become responsible, self-disciplined, productive citizens.
Our staff recognizes that children learn from all adults. We especially acknowledge you, the parent, as the child's first teacher and role model. For this reason, we welcome you and encourage you to take an active part in your child's education and to become involved in our many programs and activities. We also encourage you to promote our efforts for academic excellence by reading to your child each night, assuring that homework assignments are completed, and by volunteering in your child's classroom.
Once again welcome to Potrero. If at any time you have questions or need assistance, please feel free to contact your child's teacher or call me at 478-5930.

Respectfully yours,
Barbara Cowling
Principal
