Dear Cornwell Avenue Families,
I hope you and your family are enjoying a wonderful summer!
My Welcome Letter for the 2026–2027 school year is now available on the District website. I invite you to take a few moments to read it and learn a little more about me, my vision for Cornwell Avenue, and the exciting year ahead.
One of the things I value most is building strong relationships with our families. Throughout the summer, I invite you to stop by the school on **Thursday mornings at 10:00 a.m.** for a brief meet and greet. Whether you'd like to introduce yourself, ask a quick question, or simply say hello, I would love the opportunity to meet you.
Please note that **this Thursday, July 16, I will be attending a district training and will not be in the building.** Meet and greets will begin on **Thursday, July 23**, and continue each Thursday throughout the remainder of the summer.
I hope you enjoy the rest of your summer. I look forward to meeting many of you in the coming weeks and welcoming all of our students back to Cornwell Avenue this September!
Warm regards,
Patricia Scollo
Principal
Cornwell Avenue School
