School HighlightsMy day was awesome! I got to go to the district office and got meet all these cool people and and learn about their jobs. I got to meet the superintendent, Mr. LaCroix, see his office and talk about when he has to give delays or snow days. I learned that he’s the person who makes those decisions. I had Subway for lunch and I got to eat in the teachers lounge. It was cool to eat with the teachers. Then I got to go on a tour of the school, hand out Timbertail Tokens and see the secret places in the building. I got to announce the pick ups. My favorite part was when I got to make the announcements! I am so honored to be your principal for the day!

School Board ConnectionThank You
On April 3, 2018, the communities of Howard and Suamico approved the operational referendum, placed on the ballot by the Board of Education, by a 58.6% to 41.4% margin. Thank you to residents who attended listening sessions, asked questions, and voted. Your engagement demonstrates our communities’ interest and dedication to our students, staff and schools. The results represent a vote of confidence in the vision for the school district and will allow us to address critical needs, including reducing class size, enhancing teacher compensation, and maintaining facilities.
