Welcome to the Home of the Stallions

Hello Simonton Stallions and Families,

Welcome to Kathryn Sue Simonton Elementary School, where every day is a celebration of learning, growth, and community! We are thrilled to have you as part of our school family, and we extend a warm welcome to all our new and returning students and families as we embark on an extraordinary journey in the 2023-2024 school year. This year holds a special significance for us as we celebrate the 20th birthday of our beloved school!

Please make note that our elementary schools have slightly adjusted start and end times this year. Simonton students may arrive on campus starting at 7:45 AM, and we will dismiss at 2:50 PM (M, T, TH, F) and 12:45 PM on Wednesdays. Our official school day will start at 8:05 AM.

At Simonton Elementary, we are dedicated to providing an exceptional education that equips our students with the tools they need to succeed in a rapidly evolving world. With the leadership of our committed and talented teachers and staff, we will continue to enhance our academic programs, embrace innovative teaching strategies, and provide a safe and nurturing environment for all.

Parents and guardians, your partnership is invaluable to us. Together, we can create a positive and supportive learning environment that nurtures the holistic development of each child. I encourage you to actively engage with our school community by participating in school activities and maintaining open lines of communication with our teachers and staff. Your involvement and support play a vital role in your child's educational journey.

Our Stallions will have a new opportunity at the start of each day this year. We will be offering fun, engaging enrichment activities such as gardening, chess, art, sports, and more, starting at 7:45 AM. Students in grades 1-6 will be able to choose five to seven preferred activities. Kindergarten students will be with their kindergarten teachers. We invite any parents or guardians who wish to assist with these activities to reach out, in advance, and let us know how you would like to help, during this time. We would love to have you join us!

Once again, welcome to Simonton Elementary School. Let us work hand in hand to create a positive, enriching, and memorable experience for your child. We are confident that together we will make this school year one of growth, discovery, and endless possibilities.

Sincerely,

Sue Paschal
Principal
