Message from the Principal

Principal Photo
Welcome to our webpage! As the new Principal of Gehringer School, I’m proud to be joining a dedicated, caring, and talented staff! We have been working diligently in preparation for the 2009-10 school year. We are off to a great start!

I would like to give a warm welcome to the new staff members that have joined our team.
Chris Spring, Kinder teacher
Shari Pontius, Fourth Grade Teacher
Stephanie Cookson, First Grade teacher

Also, a warm welcome to all new students and families that have started attending our school!

As a staff, we are committed to doing everything possible to create a safe, caring, and respectful learning environment where high-expectations and student success drive what we do!

There are many things that we do at Gehringer to meet State Standards and Benchmarks. We have adopted a new Math Program, Envisions that we have started implementing this year. The staff will also be implementing Math Boards to support the learning of our students. We will continue using the Success for All Reading Program and will be implementing Language Art Boards in all classrooms. We are using assessment and data to develop and monitor school-wide and individual goals. These are just some of the things we are doing at Gehringer in order to ensure that our students meet the State Standards and Benchmarks.

An open communication between parents, teachers, and administration is key in promoting student success! Please take time to read our Parent Student Handbook, your Teacher’s Newsletters, your Teacher’s Webpage, and my Monthly Newsletters. These are a few ways to learn about things that are going on in our school. Also, join us for PTA meetings, ELAC Parent Meetings, and Principal/Parent Chats.

Thank you in advance for your commitment to the education of your child! I look forward to collaborating with you to provide the best educational foundation for our students! If you have questions or concerns about anything; please do not hesitate to call, email, or make an appointment to share those with us.
