Principal's Corner

Dear RES Families,

As we close another incredible school year, I want to take a moment to reflect on all that we accomplished together. This year was especially exciting as we welcomed eight classes of Prekindergarten students to the RES family, expanding opportunities for our youngest learners and making history as we launched this new chapter for our school.

Throughout the year, our students grew as learners and strengthened their connections with one another. We enjoyed many special events made possible by our dedicated staff, supportive families, and amazing PTA. From Fall Festival, Math Night, and Literacy Night to Volksmarch and our recent Field Day, these experiences brought our school community together and created opportunities for connection, celebration, and fun.

To our students, thank you for bringing your curiosity, energy, and enthusiasm to school each day. Whether you are heading into another year at RES or moving on to a new school, I am proud of all you have accomplished. I hope you spend the summer making wonderful memories with family and friends, exploring new adventures, and enjoying a well-deserved break.

To our second graders and families moving on from RES, we wish you all the best as you begin your next chapter. Once a Koala, always a Koala!

Have a safe, relaxing, and joyful summer. We look forward to welcoming many of you back in August.

 

Respectfully,

Natalie Horne
Principal
Ramstein Elementary School

Two hundred fifty-one years ago, delegates from thirteen British colonies met in Philadelphia to draft a statement of shared principles and aspirations in what became the First Continental Congress. The debates begun in those meetings eventually led to the creation of the United States and, a decade later, the drafting of the Constitution that continues to guide our democracy today. This summer, 27 student-teacher teams from across the United States and its territories, including a team representing DoWEA Europe, returned to Philadelphia to explore that enduring legacy.
