We recently held our Pena-Gonzalez Community meeting, where families were warmly welcomed by Principal Ms. Perez, Assistant Principal, our teachers, and our librarian.
The meeting was led by Dr. Little, Chief of Academics and School Leadership, who provided valuable insights into our school's direction. Following the presentation, parents joined teachers for a tour of the campus. This was a wonderful opportunity for families to see the learning environment firsthand and speak directly with teachers regarding any questions they had.
Thank you to all the parents and staff who made this collaborative evening possible!
