Welcome Back to School Simas Families!                                                                                           

As principal of Simas Elementary, it is my pleasure to welcome you to the 2025-2026 school year. We are so excited to welcome back our returning students and to also welcome all of our new families. Simas is an amazing school with the absolute best teachers and staff. 

It is my honor and privilege to lead our Simas Elementary team for the 5th year. Our staff is dedicated to providing a safe school environment in which students feel connected, valued, and committed to being Super Simas Stars! As Super Simas STARS, students are expected to Stay focused, Try their best, Act safely and Respect others. At Simas Elementary, we maintain high academic and behavior expectations for all students and are committed to providing your child with the a positive and supportive educational experience. At Simas Elementary, we also know that ATTENDANCE COUNTS EVERYDAY! If your child is not at school, they are not available to learn. Please do your part to get your child to school each day, on time. We provide individual and class rewards for good attendance. If you need support in getting your child to school, please reach out. 

At Simas Elementary, we value parent support and look forward to working with our families throughout the year. It takes a partnership between school staff and families to help your child meet their fullest potential. We welcome you to become a parent volunteer. If you are interested, please call the office or stop by to obtain an application and learn about the approval process. 

I can't wait to see all of our "Shining Simas STARS" on our first day of school, August 12th, 2025.
