Dear PS/MS 105 Parents and Families,
Welcome to the 2024–2025 school year!
I am thrilled to continue serving the Bay School Community as Principal for a second year. Working alongside our dedicated teachers, staff, parents, and students has been a true honor, and I look forward to another year of growth and collaboration.
This year, our commitment to enhancing Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) remains a top priority. We will continue to build on our efforts to understand and support each child’s unique personality and learning style. Additionally, we are excited to introduce a new focus on accelerating learning across all subject areas. This means we will not only maintain our dedication to SEL but also work to enhance academic achievement by identifying and implementing effective strategies to support each student’s learning journey.
A great school is defined by its positive and nurturing culture, where every member of the community works together to foster growth and make a meaningful impact. I am energized by the progress we’ve made and am deeply committed to contributing to a community that strives to make a difference in the lives of our students.
As always, I value open communication and collaboration. Please do not hesitate to reach out via email or phone with any questions or concerns.
Looking forward to a fantastic year ahead!
Sincerely,
Kathryn O’Brien
Principal.
