Meet Our Administrative Team

Dear Northwood Families,

 

Welcome to Northwood Elementary!  As the principal of Northwood Elementary School, I am dedicated to leading our school community while fostering meaningful partnerships and relationships with families, staff, and students. My goal is to create an inclusive and supportive environment where every student can thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.

 

**Families:** I believe that a strong connection between home and school is crucial for student success. I encourage open communication and collaboration with parents and guardians, ensuring that their voices are heard and valued in our school community. Through regular updates, parent-teacher conferences, and family engagement events, we work together to support each child's unique needs and aspirations.

 

**Staff:** Our dedicated teachers and support staff are the heart of Northwood Elementary. I am committed to providing them with the resources, professional development, and support they need to excel in their roles. By fostering a culture of teamwork, respect, and continuous improvement, we create a positive work environment where staff feel valued and motivated to do their best.

 

**Students:** Every student at Northwood Elementary is important to me. I strive to create a safe, nurturing, and stimulating learning environment where all students feel welcome and empowered to reach their full potential. By promoting a growth mindset, celebrating achievements, and addressing challenges with empathy and understanding, we help students develop the skills and confidence they need for future success.

 

Together, as a community, we can achieve great things. I am honored to serve as your principal and look forward to continuing our work together to make Northwood Elementary a place where everyone can learn, grow, and succeed.

 

In addition to our website, we also have a couple of social media outlets for you to quickly keep up with important news, events and updates. Please follow us on X (@NorthwoodES) and Facebook (Northwood Elementary School PTO). 

 

Sincerely,

Karen Wells

Northwood Principal
