Principal's Message

Dear Juan Felipe Herrera Elementary School Community,

Welcome to the beginning of the 2024-2025 school year! It is with great excitement and anticipation that I extend a warm welcome to all our students, families, and staff. This year promises to be one filled with growth, exploration, and achievement as we continue our journey of integrating S.T.E.A.M. (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) into our curriculum.

At Juan Felipe Herrera Elementary, we are committed to providing an education that not only focuses on academic excellence but also values the development of the whole child. We believe in the importance of social emotional learning, nurturing each student's well-being alongside their intellectual growth. Through programs and initiatives designed to foster empathy, resilience, and self-awareness, we aim to empower our students to navigate challenges with confidence and compassion.

Our partnership with parents and guardians is crucial to the success of our students. Your involvement and support create a strong foundation for their educational journey. Together, we can ensure that every child feels supported, valued, and encouraged to reach their full potential.

As we embark on this new school year, I am inspired by the dedication and passion of our staff, whose commitment to innovation and excellence enriches the learning experience for our students every day. I am confident that with their guidance, our students will continue to thrive academically and personally.

I look forward to celebrating the achievements and growth of each student throughout the coming months. Let us embrace the opportunities ahead with enthusiasm and determination, knowing that together, we can create a community where every child shines brightly.

Here's to a fantastic year of learning and discovery at Juan Felipe Herrera Elementary School!

Warm regards,

Miguel Naranjo
