Dear North Side Family, 

Welcome to the 2024-2025 school year! I am honored and excited to be the proud principal at North Side Elementary School. Congratulations, we are a "C" school with our sights set on an "A". Our theme for this year is "We Shine Brighter Together". It is my personal goal to help students reach their highest potential in all areas. I am fully committed to making this school year a success by providing an environment conducive to improving teaching and learning for all.

To ensure every child rises to his or her full potential, we must have a solid partnership not only between the home and school but also the community. Therefore, I invite you to join us in building this partnership in our quest to provide a world-class education for every child. You are cordially invited to our School Advisory Council (SAC), Parent Teacher Association (PTA), parent nights, and meetings. Do not hesitate to call, email me or stop by to see me if you have any questions or concerns. I look forward to a fantastic 2024-2025 school year as we work together to reach our goal of an "A" school. We Shine Brighter Together!"

 Sincerely, 

 Heilange Porcena
