Back to School
Point Roberts Primary School
Principal's Welcome
Welcome back to the 2003/2004 school year. I hope you all had a restful, fun summer vacation. The staff and myself are looking forward to the year. Some staff changes to let you know about is that Rita Zimbelman will be back with us full time this year, teaching kindergarten and first grade. Mary Edgley will continue teaching second and third grades.
We feel very fortunate to have the continued support of our parents and community. Please feel free to visit and/or volunteer in the school. Whether you have children in our building or not, we would love to have your assistance. We are committed to a high standard of excellence and know that we need your assistance to achieve this goal. As the principal of Point Roberts, I will continue to work with the community and school, looking for ways to continue enhancing the growth of all our students. We will be continuing to concentrate on the basic skills in reading, writing and mathematics, focusing on working towards the success of our students in achieving the goals established by the Washington State Commission on Student Learning. Our goal is to have all of our students become productive and responsible citizens achieving their highest potential. In order to achieve this goal we need to work together as a team to ensure our students the best education possible. I�m looking forward to this exciting challenge and working with all of you.
This past summer our covered play area and office space was completed. This will provide the students with a space to go during inclement weather and to spread out during learning activities. Please stop by to visit all the new and exciting improvements to our school.
Please feel free to call or e-mail me with any questions, comments, or concerns. I can be reached at the following numbers: Point Roberts: 360/945-2223 or 360/332-0673; Blaine primary school: 360/332-1300; e-mail: nbakarich@blaine.k12.wa.us.
