The first few weeks of the school year have flown by, and our students have adjusted well to being back on campus ready to learn! We have also had a ton of fun already; we have enjoyed seeing our parents and students at both our Meet the Teacher and Open House events.
We especially enjoyed meeting the parents of our newest Eagles at the BOO HOO Yahoo Breakfast hosted by PTA. Skate night was a wonderful success as our students and teachers had the opportunity to just have a little fun together!
Moss Park has such a wonderful community of exceptional, active and caring parents and faculty, all keeping our students at the center of what they do. If you are interested in volunteering or visiting campus with us, please complete the Additions application located at ocps.net, or reach out to the front office and they will guide you. We are truly thankful every day for the support we receive.
I would like to congratulate our Teacher of the Year, Mrs. Christy McCloe. She is an excellent representative of Moss Park Elementary. As our reading interventionist, she has instilled a love of learning and literacy throughout campus. She works with students in a variety of ways and ensures that relationship building and mentorship are a part of her regular routine. Students throughout campus recognize her and go out of their way to swing by for an extra dose of kindness and caring. Mrs. McCloe goes above and beyond to help our students fall in love with learning and attending school.
Congratulations are also in order for our Support Person of the Year, Mr. Juan Estrella. As our school’s head custodian, he is an outstanding member of our team. He continually pursues opportunities to make Moss Park Elementary a more friendly and clean environment. He is willing to take the extra time and care to make sure the job is done correctly, efficiently, and well before the deadline. Juan is always willing to assist all staff members with any need, great or small.
We are so excited about what this school year has to offer! Welcome back!
