Dear Families of Jean Steckle Public School,

We would like to take this opportunity to thank the students, staff and parents of Jean Steckle Public School for providing us with the most excellent start to the year. Each day it is a pleasure to come to work and serve this great community. The children’s smiling faces continue to be our inspiration. One of the most important jobs entrusted to a school is to assure that we guide and provide children with life and academic lessons that assist in creating a community of caring, kind and productive citizens. We will continue to work diligently in assuring that Jean Steckle Public School remains a safe and positive environment for your child. We truly appreciate the support that parents have shown and we look forward to the many exciting events in the new year.

We wish each of you a wonderful holiday. May it be one of love, peace, and happiness.

Sincerely,

Andrea Michelutti, Principal Rick Saunders, Vice-Principal
