Dear Agate Families,
As we approach the close of another school year, I want to take a minute to reflect on the journey we’ve shared and express my deepest gratitude for your continued partnership and support.
This year has been one of growth, resilience, and achievement for our students, staff, and community. From academic milestones to extracurricular successes, our students have demonstrated hard work, creativity, and determination. In the last four years, I've seen such growth in our students and staff; I've very proud of everyone.
To our graduating seniors—congratulations! We are proud of all you have achieved and look forward to the bright futures ahead of you. Whether you’re continuing your education, entering the workforce, or exploring new opportunities, know that you will always be part of the Agate family.
As we head into summer, I encourage all of our families to take time to relax, recharge, and explore new interests. Keep reading, stay curious, and enjoy time with friends and family.
To our staff—thank you for your dedication and tireless efforts to support and inspire our students every day. To our parents and guardians—thank you for entrusting us with your children’s education. And to our students—you are the reason we do what we do. Your energy, ideas, and potential are truly what make Agate School District so special.
