Dear Parents and Guardians,

Welcome to Palmer River Elementary School! We are absolutely thrilled to have you and your child as part of our school family. Whether you’re new to our community or returning for another exciting year, we’re so glad you’re here. This is a place where curiosity is celebrated, friendships flourish, and every child is supported on their path to success.

As you explore our website, we hope you’ll get a glimpse of the joyful learning, dedicated staff, and strong sense of community that define Palmer River. Our school is more than just a place to learn—it’s a place where children are nurtured, challenged, and inspired every single day.

We believe that a child’s education is most powerful when it’s built on a strong partnership between home and school. You are your child’s first and most important teacher, and we deeply value your role in their journey. When parents, guardians, and educators work together, children thrive—and we’re committed to building that connection with you.

Communication is at the heart of everything we do. You can expect to stay well-informed through phone calls, emails, weekly newsletters, our school website, and our vibrant Facebook Page. We’ll share important updates, celebrate student successes, and keep you connected to the day-to-day happenings at Palmer River.

There are so many meaningful ways to be involved in your child’s school experience! We warmly invite you to:

• Stay in regular touch with your child’s teacher

• Attend parent-teacher conferences and school events

• Check your child’s home-school folder daily

• Support learning at home through reading, practice, and encouragement

• Join the Rehoboth PTSA, where your voice and ideas can truly make a difference

Whether you’re volunteering in the classroom, cheering at a school performance, or helping with a PTSA event, your presence and involvement send a powerful message to your child: that education matters, and that we’re all in this together.

If you ever have questions, concerns, or just want to connect, please don’t hesitate to reach out. Your child’s teacher, our school staff, and our leadership team are always here to listen and help. Our doors are open, and we genuinely look forward to getting to know you and your family better.

Thank you for entrusting us with your child’s education. Together, we’re going to make this a year full of growth, discovery, and joyful learning.

Sincerely,

Mrs. Kristine Kefor, Principal
Mrs. Cassey Monte, Assistant Principal
