Principals Message

Dear Families,

Welcome to a new school year at Crestmont Elementary School! Whether you’re a returning family or joining us for the first time, we are excited to have you as part of our school community. At Crestmont, we are deeply committed to creating a safe, nurturing, and academically rigorous environment where every student is recognized for their unique talents, strengths, and needs.

We believe that meaningful relationships are at the heart of a thriving school. Our dedicated staff works collaboratively to build a positive school culture based on respect, personal responsibility, and a strong sense of belonging. This year, we continue to strengthen our community through the integration of Restorative Practices alongside our PBIS (Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports) framework, promoting empathy, accountability, and inclusivity in every classroom. As Crestmont Coyotes we are committed to our PBIS expectations: Be Safe, Be Respectful, Be Responsible, Be Kind.

Our academic program is designed to challenge students, spark their curiosity, and foster a genuine love of learning. We hold high expectations for all learners because we believe every child has the capacity to grow and succeed. Through an emphasis on critical thinking, perseverance, and a supportive learning environment, we guide students to take pride in their progress and become active, engaged participants in their education. When students experience academic challenges, we use data to identify their specific needs and provide targeted interventions to ensure they receive the right support at the right time.

We are also proud of our strong partnerships with parents and community members. Your involvement—whether through volunteering, attending events, becoming a part of our School Site Council or English Learner Advisory Committee, or maintaining open communication with teachers—plays a vital role in student success. Together, we can provide an exceptional educational experience for all students.

As your principal, my door is always open. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with questions, ideas, or simply to connect. I look forward to working together to make this school year one filled with purpose, growth, and unforgettable moments.

With gratitude and excitement,

Amanda Clark
Principal
