June 2022
Dear Freeport
Families,
It is time
for us to welcome the long, relaxing days of summer. The 2021-2022 school year
brought us challenges still due to the pandemic, but we stayed the course and
it was an amazing year filled with accomplishments. There were many adjustments
in protocols along the way, but your continued flexibility along with your
ability to prioritize what is best for our children, allowed them to thrive. During this well-deserved
summer break, I hope you set your focus on renewing your spirits and revitalizing
your energy, seeing family and friends, and pursuing the things that bring unparalleled
joy to your lives.
Once again,
despite the challenges of restrictions for most of this year, our students have
risen to the top in academics, athletics and the arts earning numerous awards
and recognitions. Our students have continued to make gains and our graduation
rate reflects this. Beyond the academics, our on-going support of the mental
health and well-being of our students has made the change for all. Together, we
are truly Changemakers who have transcended the challenges we have faced for
the past few years and created a welcoming, supportive environment.
Our
graduating Seniors are moving on to their post-secondary plans knowing we have
done our utmost to prepare them. We are thrilled with their many
accomplishments and wish them success in their endeavors. We wish our retirees
all the best as they move on to the next phase of their lives. Their dedication
and devotion to our students and their families is appreciated and we hope
their days are filled with all the interests they plan to follow.
The Board of
Education and I wish you all a wonderful summer break engaging in fun
activities, relaxing, and enjoying time with family and friends. I look forward
to seeing you all for the beginning of our next amazing school year together.
Sincerely,
Dr. Kishore Kuncham
Superintendent of Schools
