Dear Families,
I want you all to know that I am truly leaving here with mixed feelings; happy about my retirement, yet sad to be leaving such a great community. The last nine years as your principal have been the best period of my career. I learned a great deal, met so many wonderful parents, and was given the gift of loving students who made me proud of their achievements and could always make me laugh. I have had the time of my life and can only hope that retirement will provide me with such rewarding experiences and supportive friends as these past years have done.
Thank you very much for making my time at Castlemont so memorable. My very best wishes for the future go out to each and every one of you.
The Castlemont Home and School Club would like to say a HUGE THANK YOU to all the families, friends and staff who helped make this year’s Jog-a-thon possible!

We would like to thank all of our t-shirt sponsors as well: All Reasons Moving, Le Quy Restaurant, Shaolin Kung Fu, Greg Goodman Insurance Agency, Sports Basement, SwimPro and Baskin Robbins.

There will be prizes for every $25 a pledge earner turns in up to $100 as well.
The Castlemont Home and School Club would like to say THANK YOU to all the families and friends of our school who helped with many of the events this school year! Whether it was one hour of your time or many hours of your time, or a donation of food, money or supplies, your support helps each child here at Castlemont every day! Have a wonderful Summer Break and we look forward to seeing you again next August!
