It is with great pleasure and enthusiasm that I introduce myself to you as the principal of McCarthy Elementary School! I am delighted to be here, am eager to become an integral part of this wonderful school community, and am wholeheartedly embracing this tremendous opportunity to jump into the work with you. I actually began my teaching career in Framingham here at McCarthy and have always held a special place in my heart for this school!
I believe that a successful school consists of a community that includes children, parents, teachers, administrators and all staff working together to create a caring, committed learning environment, one which will afford the best possible education for all of its children. I believe it is the responsibility of the school leaders to provide strong communication between all stakeholders, to interact with all members of the community in a personal, caring manner, and to be aware of the individual needs of the students, teachers and parents. It is also the responsibility of the leader to foster a culture with a collaborative spirit, and to hold a clear vision that maintains the high educational expectations necessary for success.
I look forward to meeting and working with each and every one of you as we begin this journey together.
