Message from the Principal

Welcome to Bay Vista. My name is Kris Sulte and I am the proud Principal of Bay Vista Fundamental Elementary School. I have been part of the Pinellas County School since I was a kindergarten student at the 54th Avenue Elementary School, now known as John M. Sexton Elementary. I graduated from Gibbs High School and received my Elementary Education degree from The University of South Florida and my Masters in Educational Leadership from Nova Southeastern University. I have been a teacher and administrator for over 20 years. I'm married and have four children currently attending Pinellas County Schools.

Bay Vista is currently the largest fundamental elementary school in Pinellas County. With nearly 650 students, the staff at Bay Vista works with parents to develop students with strong academic skills and values. Parental Involvement is the key to our success. Parents have the opportunity to volunteer as tutors, mentors, as drivers on field trips or as a member of our PTA or SAC.

We hope you find our website useful and welcome any suggestions. Bay Vista Fundamental is a great place to be.
