Literacy continues to be the primary focus of the Placentino School. I encourage parents to read aloud with their child every evening. Reading is the key to success in school. By having an appreciation of books and increasing reading skills, children will develop the literacy skills that they will need as they move through the Placentino and Miller Schools. Please encourage your child to read to you, as well.
Excellent schools have parents actively involved in their child's education.
I hope all of you will participate often in our many school events. As principal, I am proud of our wonderful school. Together, we can create a school that truly prepares children for the challenges of each new day and prepares them for living in the 21 st century.
