MESSAGE FROM THE SUPERINTENDENT/PRINCIPAL
Endicott families, staff, and students,
As we approach the end of this school year and the beginning of the holiday break, I want to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude for all that you’ve done for our students and school community. By continuing to support our school, you’ve made a difference in the lives of our students. Thank you for your unwavering commitment to our future, right here in Endicott.
The holiday season is a time to rest, recharge, and spend quality time with family and loved ones. I hope each of you finds moments of peace and joy amidst the hustle and bustle of this busy time of year. Whether you’re enjoying quiet moments at home, traveling to visit family, or simply taking a well-deserved break, I hope you feel the warmth and gratitude from all of us here in our school community.
The state of Washington has chosen to not fully fund public education for years, even though it is the paramount duty of the legislature, according to the state constitution. If you are curious about how this came to be, as well as how this is impacting our local educational opportunities, please go to waschoolfunding.org for more information. We also have a budget page that you can access that will show you more details about how our community school is navigating this difficult time in education. Never before have we been in this situation!
I am more than happy to sit and discuss any of this with community members. Every now and then I pop down to the store for lunch and conversation. Please feel free to join me at any time, or let me know that you want to chat and I will set up a time to come down for lunch. I am here to serve the community and students, so let me know :)
As always, if you have questions or concerns, please contact me directly. I am more than willing to work things out and am here to help students have the strongest learning opportunities possible.
Warm regards,
Tricia Jeffries, M.Ed.
Superintendent / Principal
Endicott School District
