Dear Students, Parents, and Staff, 

Warm greetings to each one of you! As we embark on this exciting journey into the new academic year, I am honored to introduce myself as the new principal of South Broward High School. It is with great enthusiasm and dedication that I join this esteemed educational institution, where excellence is cherished and students' growth is at the forefront. In just a few interactions with staff, students, alumni, and families, it's become abundantly clear that South Broward High School is a unique and special place.

 As a student-focused leader, I believe in working together for the greater good of our students and advocating for excellent learning experiences for every student. With the help of our phenomenal bulldog staff and community, we will be able to improve student achievement. Our teachers and support staff have been diligently working all summer to prepare for our scholars to arrive! In addition, we are constantly reflecting and refining our instructional practices to ensure all students are college and career-ready. We believe that there are numerous opportunities, both academically and through various extracurricular activities, that will assist our students in gaining the necessary skills for success. 

To our esteemed students, I encourage you to embrace this fresh start with an open mind and heart. Remember that education is not solely confined within the walls of your classrooms but extends to every aspect of your life. Each day is an opportunity for growth, discovery, and new achievements. Together, let us cultivate an environment where creativity, critical thinking, and collaboration thrive, enabling you to become lifelong learners and responsible global citizens. 

I am eagerly looking forward to meeting each one of you in the coming weeks and establishing meaningful connections within our vibrant community. Please feel free to reach out to me personally with any questions, concerns, or ideas you may have. 

Once again, I extend my warmest wishes for a successful and fulfilling academic year ahead. Let us embark on this journey together as we inspire, empower, and shape the future leaders of tomorrow.

Sincerely, 

Alex Francois, Principal
