Principal's Corner
Dear
Families and Community Members,
It is
with great pride and honor that I greet you as the new principal of Hightower
Trail Elementary School. As an educator
with over twenty years of experience I am deeply committed to providing every student the quality education they
deserve and need. Together, we will
accomplish this task by setting high academic expectations for all children and
ensuring that the appropriate supports are available to increase success. As we maintain our positive school culture,
commitment to teaching excellence, student accountability and parental
engagement, it is our goal that when our students depart Hightower Trail
Elementary School, they are equipped with the necessary tools to compete with
their peers globally.
My
goals for the remainder of the 2018 -2019 school year are to ensure consistency
and continuity, establish and re-establish relationships with students, staff
and community members as well as ensure that we maintain our focus on “Taking
Student Growth and Achievement to the Next Level.” As a staff we are committed to continuous
progress and meeting all expectations as it relates to College and Career
Readiness Performance Index (CCRPI). As
a team we will maintain our focus on evidence - based instructional practices leading
to a WORLD CLASS educational experience for our students.
During
my two-year tenure as Assistant Principal of Hightower Trail Elementary I had
the pleasure of meeting many of our families.
Now, as Principal, I look forward to your visits, phone calls and
volunteering so that we may get to know one another better. Just know that I welcome you into Hightower
Trail Elementary and recognize the importance of the partnership between home,
school and the community contributing to the success of our students.
We are
committed to the challenge of finishing the school year strong! Please feel free to contact me via telephone
at 770.388.0751 or email tsampson@rockdale.k12.ga.us.
All the
best,
Toi L.. Sampson
