Ms. Leah Hayes - Elementary Principal

Dear Families,

Welcome to the 2024-2025 school year! As I begin my second year at Panama, I am filled with excitement and anticipation for the year ahead. Last year, we achieved so much together, and I’m eager to build on that success as we continue to make our school a place where every child can thrive. We will continue to focus on the academic growth of our students as well as their social and emotional development.

Our dedicated teachers and staff have been working hard to prepare for the new school year. They have been attending professional development sessions, setting up classrooms, and planning lessons that will engage and challenge our students. I’m confident that with their passion and expertise, this will be a year of incredible growth for all of our students.

Communication between school and home is key to a successful school year, so I encourage you to stay informed and involved. Be sure to regularly check our school’s website, follow our social media pages, and read the newsletters that will be sent home. We’ll keep you updated on important dates, school events, and ways you can support your child’s learning at home. We will continue to use Parent Square as our main communication tool. 

Thank you for your continued support and partnership. Together, we will make this school year a successful and rewarding experience for our students.

Ms. Leah Hayes
